If you’re in the south like I am you must be just as excited for the ol’ "ring of fire" weather pattern to kick back up again and considering how the rest of this year has been going, I’m willing to wager that this summer is going to be pret-ty uncomfortable. Everyone should continue to just hide out in the AC as much as possible for the foreseeable future but, If you do find yourself in a situation where you need to venture outdoors - fear not! I've compiled a short survival list of easily-acquired fans and misters to help you beat the heat.

Geek Aire Battery Operated, Rechargeable Outdoor Misting Fan

This portable misting fan is a best seller on Amazon for obvious reasons. It’s portable, rechargeable and offers a refreshing, misting cooling sensation wherever you go. It’s 3 nozzles can spray mist up to 11.5 ft and the pivot feature allows you to adjust the distance and coverage area with a gentle nudge. A fully charged battery offers 3-24 hours of fan time and as an added bonus the detachable battery can also be used as a power bank for charging mobile devices while picnicking, camping or snoozing by the pool.

Lasko High-Velocity Pro-Performance Pivoting Utility Fan

This may be an unconventional pick for cooling yourself down outdoors since it’s typically used inside exercise rooms, garages and basements but hear me out: this rugged fan has 3 different performance speeds and allows you to direct air exactly where it’s needed for cooling (i.e. straight at your face, straight up your shirt, etc.). My favorite thing about this utility fan is that it has multiple uses beyond the summer and can be used for ventilating, exhausting and drying anything from wet swimsuits to major spills. If you aren’t sold on the utility-fan-for-comfort idea Lasko also makes an outdoor misting fan that might be better fit.

OPOLAR Camping Lantern Clip-On Fan with Hanging Hook

A little something for my fellow tent campers out there: a powerful camping lantern fan that can literally help you keep your cool when you’re trying to sleep in uncomfortable temperatures. It’s designed with a strong clamp that can grab onto anything thinner than two-inches and it also has a camping hook so you can hang it from tree branches, inside your tent or even in the car. With just a couple of these genius fans in your arsenal, you can say goodbye to waking up sweaty and angry while summer camping forever (maybe).

Vornado Large Pedestal Whole Room Air Circulator Fan with Adjustable Height

Though technically an indoor air circulator fan, this adjustable Vornado is perfect for cooling down a screened-in porch or patio. It’s whisper-quiet and uses energy-efficient vortex action to provide legitimate whole room air circulation and has a fully adjustable head so you can easily direct the airflow. I actually purchased a Vornado for myself when my central air started to kick the bucket during a heatwave a few years ago and it is still the best money I’ve ever spent. In fact, I love my Vornado so much that I almost took it to my sister's wedding as my date.
