October 1, 2013



Yesterday was warmer than the day before, but the humidity was low.

When I checked the conditions around 4:30, the temperature was 87°, but the heat index was 84°, thanks to the fact that the humidity was well below 30%.

I don't know if that affected my electricity consumption. It got kind of humid last night, but the air conditioning never kicked on — at least while I was awake.

Anyway, for whatever reason, my consumption did go down slightly.

This morning's meter reading is between 11939 and 11940. Yesterday's reading was 11930 so my consumption was about 9½ kWh, a drop of about 5% compared to the previous day. I would attribute that to the time I spent away from home on campus.

And my consumption was lower than it was on this day last year. On Oct. 1, 2012, my usage was 11½ kWh so consumption went down more than 17%.
