Heat Advisory in Effect

Five things to know in Andover today.

Here are five things you need to know on Wednesday, July 17.

  • Heat Advisory: The heatwave continues today, and there is a heat advisory for our region. Temperatures are expected to reach near 100 degrees by the afternoon, and humidity will be dangerously high.
  • Pets: Keep your pets indoors as much as possible. Temperatures as high as those expected today are hazardous to animals as well as people. And do not leave a pet in a vehicle.
  • Meeting: The Conservation Commission will meet at 7:45 p.m. at Town Hall.
  • Seeking Intern: The Rising Stars Theater Camp in North Reading is looking for a high school or college intern.
  • 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.
