Supposedly, the end of the weekend will bring an end to this grip of triple–digit days.
Of course, you never know around here. It could be extended ... but, right now, the forecast indicates the temperature will drop into double digits in a few days. There is even talk of another 70° low on Tuesday night.
By then, of course, we will be halfway through August, and the hope of cooler temperatures in September won't be so far away.
It was in triple digits yesterday, probably 101° or 102°, but the index was 105° or higher most of the day. It was still in the upper 90s at 8 p.m.
Last night's low was predicted to be 79°. It was 81° when I woke up.
This morning's meter reading is between 17625 and 17626. Yesterday's reading was 17589. My consumption in the last 24 hours was 36½ kWh. That is just about 34% higher than my consumption in the previous 24 hours, and it is nearly 22% higher than this date last year.
I'm afraid it will be much the same today.
