May 19, 2013



The transition to hot weather can be abrupt in this part of the country.

Just a few days ago, we were having mild nights and reasonably mild days. But yesterday's high temperature was in the mid–90s and last night's low was probably in the mid–70s. If there has been one good thing about this year, it is that the arrival of hot weather has been delayed by unseasonably cool temperatures in April and early May.

But I am resigned to the reality that single–digit electricity consumption days are a thing of the past — at least until sometime this fall.

This morning's meter reading is 8928. Yesterday's reading was between 8910 and 8911 so electricity consumption was roughly 17½ kWh.

And the good news is that's about 20% below my consumption on the same date a year ago.
