New York isn't the only state that is being asked to conserve. Lower southeastern MI was told that our reserves are lower than they like to see. We're being asked to utilize major appliances after 8pm or before 1pm. Includes washers, dryers, dishwashers, etc. We've been asked to pump the AC up 10 degrees higher so it isn't running constantly; and to pump it up 5 if we're home. They've already browned out some areas by turning off traffic lights, so some less busy intersections become 4 way courtesy stops. And traffic accidents up the yazoo. You'd think it had snowed 5 feet. jeesh. We've also had 2 ozone action days. No gas lawn mowing, no gas fillups until dawn, don't drive if you don't have to. Stuff like that (for those that don't know what some of these mean).
