Xcel asks to lower the thermostat to 63 [View all]

We keep ours at 67 when we are at home, and at night at 64.

But these days the gas fireplace is working and working.

Hard to imagine these homes in the metro area that lost power

I don't remember: did Xcel get to increase the rates because the last winters were mild which hurt its revenue?
