April 21, 2013



The gradual warming trend the forecasters told us to expect has arrived.

Yesterday's temperatures were in the 70s, more of the same is expected today (it is about 8:30 a.m. as I write this, and the temperature is already around 52°), and tomorrow's high temperature is expected to be 80°.

I don't know if that is the reason — or if it is the fact that yesterday was Saturday, and I spent most of the day around the apartment, consuming more electricity than I usually do — but my consumption went up. Proportionately, it went up more than 40%, which, because of my current level of consumption, sounds worse than it is.

This morning's meter reading is 8715. Yesterday's reading was between 8708 and 8709, putting my consumption in the last 24 hours at 6½ kWh. But the meter reading on Friday was 8704 so consumption in the previous 24 hours was 4½ kWh.
