August 13, 2013



By 3 p.m. yesterday, the temperature was not in triple digits. It was 97° with a heat index of 101°.

Maybe it reached 100°, maybe it didn't. The forecast called for 101°. I didn't check again to see if it did.

It was still warm — about 85° when I got up this morning — but the forecasts still say we can expect low 90s, perhaps even upper 80s tomorrow and the next day.

We'll see.

They may be right. My consumption was below 30 kWh in the last 24 hours.

This morning's meter reading is between 10908 and 10909. Yesterday's reading was 10880. Consumption was 28½ kWh, which is a drop of almost 7%.

Even so, it was slightly higher than my use on this day in 2012. The area was still enjoying unseasonably mild days, and my consumption compared to this day a year ago is higher — by less than 2%.
