February 3, 2014



Remarkably, it probably was colder here in Texas yesterday than it was in New York for the Super Bowl.

It remained in the 30s all day (and probably during the night — it was 31° when I got up this morning).

The weather is supposed to be warmer today and tomorrow, then it is supposed to cool off again in the middle of the week. I'm eager for some springlike weather — but the problem with Dallas, as I have often observed, is that the typically mild seasons of spring and fall last only about two weeks here, then we are plunged into extremes again. Just last week, we went from a day in the 70s to a day in the 30s within a matter of hours.

This morning's meter reading is 14499. Yesterday's reading was between 14450 and 14451. My consumption in the last 24 hours was 48½ kWh. That is an increase of nearly 80% compared to the previous 24 hours and more than six times my consumption on this date in 2013.
