It was cold yesterday, and it got cold last night. And my apartment was so cold I wondered if my downstairs neighbors have moved out.
In fact, I'm still wondering about that.
But that may not be all that important at this point in the calendar. Before long, it will be warm here — and it will stay that way for something like four or five months, at least — and, since hot air rises, I can't expect much benefit from downstairs — until the cold weather returns on a regular basis.
This cold snap is expected to be mostly gone in a few hours. Today's high temperature is expected to be in the 60s, maybe the 70s. It is expected to dip into the 40s tonight, then the extended forecast speaks of 50s and 60s at night. Since that takes us past the midpoint of April, I have to expect warmer temperatures to stay with us.
My heat kicked on a time or two during the night, but I don't think it is likely to be much of a factor again for awhile.
My consumption dropped by about 1 kWh in the last 24 hours.
Today's meter reading is 8636. Yesterday's reading was between 8629 and 8630. My consumption was 6½ kWh.
Whether it was due to the cooler weather or not, my consumption declined by a little more than 13%.
