NYC 103

Submitted by ub on

We are not talking about an FM Radio Station. This was the temperature this morning in New York City and the next few days are expected to be more of the same.

Meanwhile, last night, 73 K folks in sections of Manhattan found themselves without power for hours and The Big Apple circus was not a comfortable place, lacking air conditioners and fans. This occurred on the anniversary of the black-out of 1977.

NYFD says the power outage started just before 7P spanning Midtown Manhattan and the Upper West Side, from Fifth Avenue to the Hudson River and from the West 40s to 72nd Street. Then, New Yorkers reported the blackout extended to 36th Street.
