Mayor Zohran Mamdani was roasted online for urging New Yorkers to set their air conditioners to a balmy 78 degrees as a punishing heat wave wallops the Big Apple — threatening to send temps soaring to 100 degrees for the first time since 2012.
“New York: it’s hot out there, and the power grid is working overtime to keep us cool,” Hizzoner wrote in a post on X. “Set your AC to 78 degrees, turn off lights/electronics you’re not using, and unplug what you can.”
