I found out my water usage is ~10x higher than expected. So I'm doing what any normal human would do, point a Nest cam at the meter and periodically log usage in a spreadsheet.
I even created an activity zone over the ones digit in Nest so it annotates the timeline whenever usage changes 😂
My back of the envelope expected usage is 160 gallons/day, but actual usage is coming out to 1600 gallons/day. The difference is as if I have a leak somewhere losing 1 gallon per minute, every minute!
I'd actually be more relieved if it's a leak and not my gluttonous water usage
BREAKING: Meter readings as billed by the water company are exactly 10x what my meter actually reads. That would explain the discrepancy!

Also see the nice note from their billing department. They can tell something's not right and want to help find the problem. I'll be asking about the 10x reading next time they call..
