   nightime cooling

     I can reroute my central solar collector to blow in air from a shady   
   and cool part of the yard into the house. This would be distributed   
   through the heating vents. So, blowing cool pre morning air instead of   
   what a whole house fan does: sucking it out into the attic from open   
   windows.   
      
      That would seem to be useful cooling, at least for some days.   
   However, morning air has a high relative humidity and since comfort is   
   related to both temperature and humidity that would argue against   
   changing out air that has been air conditioned (lower humidity).   
      
      Is it worth the effort?
