Heat-Fueled Power Outages Possible

Five things you should know in Andover today.

Here are five things you need to know on Thursday, July 18.

  • Yeah, Hot Again: The heatwave continues with temperatures expected to be in the 90s most of the day, and humidity will be dangerously high.
  • Electricity: National Grid is warning that with everyone cranking the air conditioners, there may be power outages. Try to conserve electricity. If you depend on electronic medical equipment to live, such as a respirator, let National Grid know immediately if you're not already registered with their life support equipment list. Call 800-322-3223. 
  • Meeting: The Towle Fund Trustees will meet at 4 p.m. at Town Hall.
  • Hockey: Want to think of a cool topic? A female hockey team is looking for members.
  • Blogging: It seems there's a glitch in the new Patch 2.0 system that is rejecting blogs as spam. If this happens to you when you post, please contact Bryan.McGonigle@patch.com so we can fix it.
