For most of yesterday, it seemed like we were going to have another scorcher. And, as I say, it was — until around 6 p.m. Then a cool front (most likely, a very temporary one) came through and actually did drop a little rain.

The temperature probably only dropped about 6 or 7 degrees, from the low 100s to the mid–90s — but it was noticeable.

And I believe it brought my electricity consumption down — a bit.

This morning's meter reading is 10065. Yesterday's reading was between 10037 and 10038 so my consumption in the last 24 hours was 28½ kWh. Yesterday's consumption was 33½ kWh so my usage went down nearly 15%.

And, compared to this date last year, consumption went down nearly 14%.
