I don't know if the temperature hit 90° yesterday, but I do know it was quite warm. And, although it wasn't as humid as it can be in Dallas, the humidity was higher than it was the day before.
Consequently, I did run my air conditioning for a few minutes to cool off the apartment around 10 p.m.
The temperature was supposed to drop into the 60s last night — with a possibility of rain after 1 a.m. I don't know if it did. I usually wake up briefly during the night, and I may well have done so last night, but I have no recollection of it. I do know, though, that it was already in the 70s when I got up this morning.
I expected an increase in electricity consumption when I checked my meter. And my suspicions were correct — but the increase wasn't as dramatic as I feared.
This morning's meter reading is 8877. Yesterday's reading was between 8868 and 8869, making consumption 8½ kWh.
That is an increase of nearly 12% over yesterday's consumption.
