My electric meter continues to be a baffling thing.
Sunday was unseasonably warm. For the second straight day, temperatures rose into the 70s. I kept my windows closed but the blinds open, and by the time I went to bed, the temperature in my apartment was around 75°. When I got up this morning, it looked as if it hadn't changed. Maybe it did, but I don't see how.
Anyway, my consumption in the last 24 hours appears to be roughly the same as the previous 24 hours — but still considerably more than the 24 hours before that.
And to my knowledge, my heating — which is the only significant variable — hasn't come on in the last three days.
Today's meter reading appears to be 8065. Yesterday's reading was between 8055 and 8056 so my consumption was 9½ kWh. Saturday's reading was 8046 so my consumption from Saturday morning to Sunday morning also was 9½ kWh.
But my reading on Friday was 8041. And the only factor I can think of that was different was the fact that I wasn't home very much on Friday.
Oh, well.
