July 27, 2013



Yesterday morning, it looked like we might be in for a relatively mild day. Temperatures were in the upper 70s until around noon or so.

By late afternoon, though, summer had seized the day. Literally. Around 4 p.m., the temperature was 94°, and the heat index was 99°.

Maybe it got warmer after that. I don't know. But it does appear that my electricity consumption went down.

This morning's meter reading is 10398. Yesterday's was between 10374 and 10375. That means my usage was 23½ kWh — a drop of more than 20% compared to the previous 24 hours. And, with a forecast high of 90° today, I'm hoping for another decline in the next 24 hours — if not the next 48.

Even better, my consumption went down nearly 33% compared to this day last year.
