We Energies urges balloon safety after 14k lose power in 2025

(WFRV) – Metallic balloons, often used for celebrations, are causing thousands of power outages, and We Energies is urging customers to take precautions to prevent them. In a press release, We Energies reported that Mylar balloons have caused outages affecting nearly 14,000 customers so far this year, resulting in over 153,000 minutes of lost power. Application for Class B liquor license in Green Bay open upon release Since 2020, the company has recorded more than 120,000 outages linked to Mylar balloons. The metallic coating on Mylar balloons can conduct electricity when they come into contact with power lines. This contact creates short circuits that not only interrupt electrical service but can also cause power lines to fall, posing serious safety hazards. We Energies recommends never releasing balloons outdoors and always securing them to a weight. Customers should keep balloons away from overhead power lines and avoid touching balloons that are tangled in wires or utility equipment. Wisconsin Department of Natural Resources seeking volunteers to teach next generation of hunters If a balloon is spotted caught in power lines or other utility equipment, customers should contact We Energies immediately at 800-662-4797 rather than attempting to remove it themselves. Taking these simple precautions can help prevent outages and ensure public safety. Copyright 2025 Nexstar Media, Inc. All rights reserved.

Proposed project would add bicycling-centric upgrades along Buena Vista in Albuquerque

ALBUQUERQUE, N.M. (KRQE) – A roughly mile-and-a-half stretch through the south end of Albuquerque is what the city is now eyeing for a slew of new bicycling-centric upgrades. 'More bike lanes! That's what people want, more bike lanes,' shared Dan Mayfield, spokesperson for the City of Albuquerque's Department of Municipal Development.

NM Tattoo Fiesta and more News: New Mexico resident speaks out after his father was killed in Ruidoso flood This is the latest project to come out of the city's newly updated bikeway and trail facilities plan is a dedicated bike boulevard on Buena Vista Drive. Mayfield continued, 'If you create a bike boulevard in that area, you can take a bicycle all the way from Isotopes Park to CNM to UNM, and from Central, you can hop an ART bus or a 66 bus with your bicycle and go north or south really easily.' The city's plan is to put the north-south bike route between Central Ave. and Gibson Boulevard, through Nob Hill, University Blvd., and neighborhoods by the Albuquerque International Sunport. 'Slowing traffic down and creating these dedicated bike lanes helps people get around,' said Mayfield. The city is also looking to add three mid-block crossings along the route at Gibson, Avenida Cesar Chavez, and Central with HAWK signals. They also want to add mini traffic circles and extend the curbs in some areas. However, the city still needs funding for the project. Right now, they're in the middle of a public review process, still taking suggestions to make sure everyone is on the same page. 'We're going to be showing off our 60% design. So this is, you know, we're in the middle of designing this, and we want the community to come out and take a look,' explained Mayfield. The goal is to get the project done by 2027.
