FIRE - With another week of only insignificant precipitation (0.10”) our dry condition prevail.  Also, our days have been very sunny with the absence of clouds to provide any shade.
ENERGy - Daytime temperatures fluctuated up and down versus the average, which probably turned out to be average.  Nighttime temperatures were mostly below our average.  This has increased the “Furnace” portion of our system to run more.  However the sunny days allow us to turn off the heat during daylight hours and turn it back on at dusk.
GENERAL - Regular amounts of precipitation would be a very welcome Christmas present from SANTA!
