THREAD: We haven't forgotten about folks in the Merrimack Valley in the wake of the #MVGasFires, and we're sure you haven't either. Here's an update on what's happening: 
It's been a month since the gas fires and explosions that rocked Lawrence, Andover, and North Andover. Most people who were affected are back home. But few are back to normal. wgbh.org/news/local-new…
Despite an emergency loan program, the shutdown drove many local businesses to the brink: wgbh.org/news/local-new…
Here's more about that loan program: wgbh.org/news/local-new…
Meanwhile, we learned more about the cause of the fires and explosion through the NTSB investigation of @ColumbiaGasMA: wgbh.org/news/local-new…
A spokesperson for @ColumbiaGasMA tried to ease residents' safety concerns: wgbh.org/news/local-new…
But then, only weeks afterward, another overpressurization incident happened in Woburn, this time on pipes managed by National Grid: wgbh.org/news/local-new…
At the same time that all of these incidents are happening, National Grid's gas workers have been locked out by the company: wgbh.org/news/politics/…
Will the ongoing crisis affect the upcoming elections in November? Maybe. Here's more on that: wgbh.org/news/politics/…
