Is It Autumn Yet?!

Today there’s going to be highs in the 90s, and Tuesday temperatures are expected to go over 100. There’s a general fear of another blackout like the one that hit the city in 2003. That’s a lot of people running a lot of air conditioners, which puts a lot of stress on the power grid. Parts of Queens went without power for over a week, which increases fears. That’s why we’re urging our readers to read up on the city government’s power consumption and conservation tips. You should also check out Con Ed’s page for more tips. We’d hate to lose any of our readers to heatstroke or dehydration — so do us a favor and follow their tips. That way our hit count stays up.
