Con Ed Warns Armonk Residents To Conserve Electricity Usage | Armonk NY Homes

-
Con Edison is asking its Westchester and New York City customers to conserve their electricity usage as sweltering heat and humidity continue to bake the area.
Electricity usage was near an all-time peak, reaching 13,161 megawatts Thursday evening, Con Edison reported of its coverage area.  The all-time electric peak record was set in July 2011 at 13,189 megawatts.
Con Ed said its crews continue to work to restore customers affected by scattered power outages due to this week’s heat wave.
The power company would like to remind customers to use these energy and money-saving tips:
  • Install a timer or clock thermostat on your air conditioner so you can program it to operate and shut-off at a pre-determined time.
  • If you have a room air-conditioning unit, close off the rooms not being used; if you have central air, block off the vents for un-used rooms.
  • Plan cooking, baking or other household activities that produce heat and humidity for the cooler times of the day and night.

Top 20 real estate websites in June | Mount Kisco Real Estate

-
Last year, Realtor.com and Yahoo Real Estate battled it out for the top position in the monthly real estate website rankings maintained by Web metrics firm Experian Hitwise . So far this year, Zillow has been king of the hill, having bumped Yahoo Real Estate from the top spot in March. Jockeying for the spots below first place has also been fierce, with Trulia jumping two positions into second place on the Hitwise list in June. Trulia leapfrogged over third-place Realtor.com, bumping Yahoo Real Estate into third place in the process. AOL Real Estate, meanwhile, moved up two positions from May to June, but there were no new websites in the top 10.
