December 1, 2012



If recent days are any indication — and, in my experience, when you're talking about Texas weather, recent days are seldom reliable indications except in the summer, when it is always hot — we may have another mild winter this year.

Which would be fine with me from an electricity consumption standpoint. But I actually have downstairs neighbors this winter (so far, anyway), and I benefit from their heat when the temperature gets cold so I fail to see how I will actually benefit financially from a mild winter — and, if we don't have a freeze that is sufficient to kill off the insects that make our lives miserable in the summer, it's hard for me to see any benefit in this for me.

Anyway, yesterday was a mild day, and I only got around to shooting the photo of my meter a few minutes ago so today's electricity consumption actually represents about a 26–hour period.

And it still remained in single digits.

This morning's meter reading is 6935. Yesterday's reading was 6927. My consumption rate seems to be consistent because Thursday's reading (which was just about 24 hours before yesterday morning's reading) was 6921.
