• National Grid won't disconnect service in extreme heat, as region braces for temp jump (dailygazette.com) — If you live in Scotia and fall behind on your National Grid bill during extreme heat, your power can’t be shut off on days when the heat index tops 90 degrees. Scotia is officially designated a heat-island community, so added protections apply for two days after heat events, while local officials urge neighbors to check on seniors and vulnerable residents.
