Persistent cloud cover kept the temperature mostly in the 80s yesterday. It managed to get into the 90s late in the day, but then it started raining and the temperature was in the 70s before I went to bed.

I guess it stayed in the 70s all night because it was 72° when I got up this morning.

It is expected to stay in the 70s today, then drop into the 60s tonight. Weekend highs are supposed to rise into the 80s, but the lows are expected to remain in the 60s for the next week.

This morning's meter reading is between 11815 and 11816. Yesterday's reading was 11799. That means consumption in the last 24 hours was roughly 16½ kWh — and I expect the readings for the next three or four days to be in the teens — if not single digits.

Consumption went down 24% in the last 24 hours.

But that cool front was still with us a year ago so my consumption is 83% higher than it was on this date in 2012.
