June 23, 2013



Yesterday was another scorcher. I don't know if this is as warm as it got, but I checked weather conditions at 6 p.m. and the temperature was 95°. Humidity wasn't as high as it has been so the heat index wasn't much higher than the air temperature, but it was high enough — 97° when I checked.

In fact, I saw very little difference between yesterday and the day before, but my consumption actually was down a little.

This morning's meter reading is 9570. Yesterday's reading was 9544 so my consumption in the last 24 hours was 26 kWh. Consumption in the previous 24 hours was 28 kWh so my usage went down about 7%.

Apparently, this date last year was a real scorcher, maybe even hotter than it was yesterday, although the only temperature/heat index in my entry for June 23, 2013 sounds like the one I just mentioned. Well, the heat index was higher — but that only tells you what it feels like to your skin. If you're inside, I suppose it has no effect.

Anyway, my consumption on this date last year was a whopping 42 kWh. Usage went down more than 38% compared to this day in 2012.
