Hot under the collar

We came close to a record in the greater Watertown area today - just one degree (F) short of the record of 93 degrees set in 1941.
Of course, such oppressive heat does create a strain on the power grid. That's perfectly understandable. What I can't understand is why the St Regis - Akewsasne Mohawk reserve had to endure rolling blackouts. Smells a little racist to me. I think the Hermes store in Manhattan ought to have been the first spot targetted.
