As the month of November 2014 closes
itself out with average temperature of 6 degrees lower than
what has been historically normal, the difference will really be felt
in increased heating costs! This month, I will come in at about 1300
kWh versus a November 2013 total of just 890! In terms of cash, that
will be about a $140 bill! An amount that will wipe out any savings I
received from lower than expected gasoline prices (currently at $2.54
per gallon).
Rainfall for this month was a meager
1.73 inches versus a normal or average of 4.9 inches! So,
overall the moderate drought situation for people like me, living in
southwest Missouri continues unabated.
As they say, cheer up! Things might be
worse. December is fast approaching and perhaps we'll make up for the
lack of rain with a lot ice and snow!
