Heat-Fueled Power Outages Possible

Five things to know in North 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 Zoning Board of Appeals will meet at 7 p.m. at Town Hall.
  • Gardening: There will be a Summer Garden Workshop at Smolak Farms.
  • Blogging: Today we will learn about the fate of Market Basket's CEO.
