October 3, 2013



I expect to spend a lot of time on campus today so I'm hoping that my electricity consumption will drop.

It was just warm enough around here yesterday to kick on my air conditioning late in the afternoon and into the evening, and it is expected to be like that today and tomorrow.

Then, if the forecasts are correct, temperatures will drop into the 70s over the weekend — and, hopefully, hot weather will be a thing of the past until sometime next year.

It is overcast this morning, which makes the photo hard to read, but this morning's meter reading is between 11965 and 11966. Yesterday's reading was 11952. Consumption in the last 24 hours was 13½ kWh — an 8% increase over the previous 24–hour period.

And because it was apparently so mild around here on this date last year, consumption is nearly 69% higher than it was in 2012.
