2011 - 2012 - 2013 - El Nino La Nina Forecast and Predictions

It seems like La Niña (or maybe CO2) and high-efficiency heat pumps are a winning combo!!

Whereas we are breaking power usage records here..

Since this is our first season:

A. Running two Sanyo 24k systems.
B. Heating the den (w/ it's 100 sq feet of glass).
C. Keeping both systems set to 20 to 21C 24-7.
D. Being so old that I need to feel warmer.

So, we are creating a new benchmark this winter..
If it's colder or warmer next year, we can compare kWh used..
Unless, we decide to run at 21-22C next season!!
