Warm Weather Prompts Call For Reduced Electricity Use
Due to high demand caused by hot weather, National Grid is asking customers in the communities of Baldwinsville, Liverpool, East Syracuse, Dewitt, Onondaga, Fairmount, Camillus, the north and southwest sides of the city Syracuse and the west side of the city of Oswego to reduce all unnecessary electricity usage until 9 p.m.
The request is being made to reduce demand on utility equipment in the areas listed. Electricity supply to the area is adequate, but heavy demand and high temperatures are taxing local equipment.
National Grid is not asking customers to stop using electricity altogether -- just to use less of it through this evening. Steps that residential customers can take are:
Set air conditioners at higher temperatures.
Close shades and blinds to keep homes cooler.
Limit use of major appliances such as electric stoves, dishwashers, and clothes dryers.
Turn off unnecessary lights.
The company already has asked large customers, including industries, to restrict unnecessary electricity consumption.
The situation will be constantly monitored, and any new developments will be reported.
Plume can be a visible or measurable discharge of a contaminant from a given point of origin
Can be visible or thermal in water, or visible in the air as, for example, a plume of smoke. (2) The area of measurable and potentially harmful radiation leaking from a damaged reactor. (3) The distance from a toxic release considered dangerous for those exposed to the leaking fumes.
