July 10, 2012



I think yesterday's high temperature was higher than the forecast anticipated — but that isn't unusual around here, especially in the summer.

Extended forecasts are almost always revised as the forecast date draws closer. In the summer, that typically means that temperatures will be higher than predicted.

And, usually, any forecast of rain shrivels.

But this week may be an exception.

There was a 40% chance of rain in this area yesterday — and we did, actually, get some drizzle yesterday morning. There is a 50% chance of rain today.

Anyway, that drizzle might have held the heat in check yesterday. This morning's reading is 4202. Yesterday's reading was 4175.

Consequently, I kept my electricity consumption below 30 kWh.

The forecast for the next several days calls for temperatures in the mid–90s and the possibility of rain today and tomorrow.
