April 9, 2012



Easter Sunday was cool and overcast around here. We even had some rain in my neighborhood in the afternoon.

I didn't run the air conditioning at all yesterday.

My best guess is that the temperature didn't get above 75° or 76° — which accounts for my Kwh usage. It was back in single digits, as you can clearly see if you compare today's photo with yesterday's.

I started doing all this around noon last Monday so it has been just about one week now — and my average daily consumption is about 9.7 Kwh per day. It goes up if I use my air conditioning, as I observed yesterday, but this last week has been comparable, in terms of electricity usage, to just about any week in February. Yet, somehow, the billing company shows my daily consumption rate for that month to be triple what it has been in the last week.

In the past, I might have been willing to accept that. But not this year.
