The cooler temperatures will be ushered in by possible showers or thunderstorms throughout the week.

While waiting for the heat to break, Consolidated Edison asks that its 3.2 million customers in New York City and Westchester County conserve electricity.

Power outages affected parts of Brooklyn on Sunday. The utility says electricity use over the weekend was the second highest on record.

If there is an electricity problem, Con Edison customers can report it by visiting www.conEd.com or calling 1-800-75-CON ED.
