The thing that gets me about England is that fewer than 5% of the households have air conditioning. I know what it feels like to weaken and slowly melt. I was living in Paris during the summer of ‘03 (23 rue Tourlaque) so don’t tell me. All we had were fans.
HE is experiencing a Fairfield County brown-out as we speak…right now. But everyone has a.c., of course.
Regional power will be restored around 10 pm, give or take.
