As predicted, temperatures were in the 60s yesterday, and they are already in the 60s as I write this. More of the same is expected tomorrow.
As a result, my electricity consumption dropped quite a bit.
Today's meter reading is 8046. Yesterday's reading was between 8041 and 8042, which means my consumption was 4½ kWh!
It's true that I was helped by the fact that I was on campus from about noon until 9 p.m. — but I really doubt that I would have felt the need to adjust my thermostat.
Thursday's meter reading was around 8029 (actually, between 8029 and 8030) so my consumption dropped by about two–thirds in a 24–hour period.
And the only significant variable had to be the use of the heat.
