I live here. A couple weeks ago my AC went out and I had to have an after hours/emergency tech come out - blown capacitor. The next day one of my co-workers had his AC go out - blown capacitor. Yesterday my mother-in-laws AC went out - blown capacitor. It’s so hot that these units are running basically nonstop. AC companies are making money hand over fist right now.
If it helps at all, AC capacitors are extremely easy to replace, so if you had an extra or two on hand, that might save you some headache and money later. Tell you friends. I hope you can stay cool!
Def did this one by one to all of the caps in my old AC unit. Amazing how resourceful you become when faced with a night of discomfort and a huge repair bill.

Do be carefully though, capacitors can store an electrical charge, even broken ones can still be dangerous.
