I just don't want to be pouring sweat during the interview.

It's 90 degrees outside today, and it's reading at like 85 in the house... I'm just not sure we can impress them with us, or with our house when it's this hot. But I also really hate the thought of canceling.

The kids don't seem to mind a bit... They played in the pool all morning and now we've been inside for lunch and to play indoors. They are all pink faced and a little clammy but don't seem to really notice. We have lots of fans.
I agree with the poster who said to call the interviews. Let them know that the a/c has broken and while you have scheduled a repair man, it will not be fixed in time for the interview. I might even mention something light hearted "the kids don't seem to mind, they are loving the extra water play!" So they know you are open and handling it accordingly...I would be prepared to give a quick tour, any copies of paperwork they may need and then show them the door with a "if you have any questions..."
