RUSHFORD, Minn. — For a second consecutive day the co-op MiEnergy called on customers to unplug and dial down to conserve electricity. The alert was for the same peak usage period as the day before, from 2 to 6 p.m. Waves of severe morning thunderstorms , with as much as three inches of rain in parts of the MiEnergv service area, failed to cut continuing heat and oppressive humidity.
