The mayor, Emergency Management Commissioner Joseph Esposito and Health Commissioner Dr. Mary Bassett urged New Yorkers to set their air conditioners to 78 degrees today—promising it’d be cool enough to keep people safe as temperatures soar above 90 degrees, while at the same time not overwhelming electrical grids and plunging the city into blackouts or brownouts.

“We have a thousand outages already. Is that gonna get worse? We’ll see as the day goes on,” Mr. Esposito told reporters today during a City Hall briefing on the potentially deadly heat.
