Many El Pasoans trying to beat the heat without refrigerated air
EL PASO, Texas (KVIA) - El Paso is one day away from hitting four straight weeks of triple digit temperatures everyday.
Wednesday, July 12th marked day 27, and ABC-7's Stormtrack Weather Team is forecasting another week of triples over the coming days.
ABC-7 reached out to El Paso Electric to see what their data is on residents with or without refrigerated air.
George De La Torre, a spokesperson from EP Electric, told ABC-7 that their data is from a voluntary survey that is taken every two years.
"From our survey conducted in 2021, 51% of our customers in our service area have refrigerated air," De La Torre told ABC-7.
