Listen to daily commentary from provincial news director Sarah Mills
Sarah Mills says parents are probably breathing a sigh of relief as kids head back to school after the Easter break.
The province’s power grid is working overtime amidst heat warnings.
Saskatchewan broke the summer power use record Thursday afternoon, with 3,419 megawatts of usage.
That beats a record set earlier this month, when a peak of 3,360 MW was hit on July 10.
That record was beat by 88 MW, which SaskPower said is the equivalent of 88,000 homes using power.
