Scattered power outages were reported around Huntington Sunday, though the Long Island Power Authority said it did not appear to be related to excessive power use because of the heat.

Most of the outages were reported in Huntington, Huntington Station and East Northport. As of 8 p.m., about 75 customers had lost service, which was expected to be restored by midnight.

Con Ed reported record power usage in New York City because of the heat.
