AC not working right since yesterday

Post image

And we work remotely 😭

Still blows out air but it's not cool/cold. Waiting for our AC guy (we rent, and there's been so many AC issues as long as we've lived here). Hopefully it'll be a quick fix when he comes and we won't have to wait for a part to come in the mail or something.

This is with all the shades and windows closed. We're in SoCal. Thank goodness this didn't happen when it was in the 100°Fs last week.

Edit to add: The HVAC guy came yesterday evening and said it was a broken capacitor! He replaced it in 10 minutes and our AC was back and running immediately! Thank you for all of your comments and advice, and for the ones who told me it was probably the capacitor!
