The heat this week will be no joke, with ERCOT anticipating near-record electricity demand.
Of course the challenge is staying comfortable while minimizing electricity consumption.
ensuring your A/C is running efficiently, with a clean filter and regular maintenance is key. After that, sealing the cool air you have made inside your home and blocking radiant heat from the sun with blinds and curtains can really help.
Here are some warm-weather savings tips from the Department of Energy..

Safety Saturday - the past week has reinforced the power of lightning in these pop-up thunderstorms. Lightning can strike up to 10 miles away from the storm!
The most important thing is keeping yourself safe and out of harm's way, which mostly means getting inside (and especially off the water!) well before the storm gets anywhere close.
See this handy information sheet from esfi.org for some lightning safety tips.
Outage Update: Midnight - five outages affecting about 30 members remain with repairs underway at each location.
If your power is still Outage Update: 7:35 p.m. Crews are making progress on the largest outages in Crandall and the Scurry/Cottonwood area. About 1,000 members are still without power including more than 500 near the Lake Tawakoni State Park. Crews are working through the many lightning-related small outages as quickly as possible. They will continue until everyone is back on, thank you for your patience as they work as quickly and safely as possible.
Outage Alert: Another round of evening storms has line crews responding to multiple outages, particularly in Kaufman County.
We will add updates when the weather settles and we get more information on any large outage restoration times.
Report outages at 800-967-9324.
