Yesterday was a lot like the day before — only without the rain.
A friend of mine who lives north of here says he got a respectable amount of rain last night, but it doesn't seem to have come through this area.
Yesterday's high was in the mid–90s so, based on previous experience, my estimate was that I would use 30 kWh, maybe more.
But, somehow, I managed to keep it below 30.
Sunday's meter reading was between 4146 and 4147. Today's reading is 4175. That means my usage in the last 24 hours was roughly 28½.
It is cloudy this morning, which accounts for the quality of this morning's photo. In fact, we have already had some drizzle today, and the latest forecast I have seen calls for a 50% chance of rain with a high of about 93°.
In fact, if the seven–day outlook turns out to be correct, daytime highs will be around 91°, maybe 92° — now, depending on where you are, that might not sound so good, but here in Texas, that's a summer cool front — and we will continue to have a 50% chance of rain tomorrow.
Even if the forecast of rain doesn't pan out, I'll be glad if we keep this cloud cover. It helps keep the temperature down (although we could really use the rain).
