Usually if December stays on the milder side, which it has the last few years with just an occasional one that sneaks in there with a blast of artic air my bill will generally still be between ninety to a hundred, maybe one hundred twenty with a cold blast. This year one hundred sixty nine and we had one three day blizzard right before Christmas that ended up melting away for the most part as temps rose back into the fifties the following week. I suspect it's not just all due to higher demand pricing as a couple times I came home and the house was all toasty warm and started sweating in the fuzzy heavy type tops I wear during the winter. I know the guilty parties involved since I had to take in family who lost their place due to a house fire in the apartment house attic. I told them running around in t shirts and a blouse wasn't going to hit it. They deny ever turning up the heat but I told them flat out you really don't think I know the difference living here alone and living here with all you, I don't sweat in these tops I wear, it's like a sauna in here. lol.
LOL, you tell em gal.
