Tesla Motors Gallery Opens, Gas Price Decline May Be Temporary

Don't forget about Maryland's tax-free shopping week, which lasts through Saturday.

Here are five things to know in Potomac on Wednesday, Aug. 14:

1.) Temperatures will be in the upper-70s, with sunny skies and no chance of rain, The Weather Channel reported Tuesday night.

2.) Blasting starts today at the construction site at 8300 Wisconsin Ave., Bethesda, where a mixed-use development with a Harris Teeter grocery store is planned. Vehicular traffic on Wisconsin Avenue will pause for a minute before each blast. 

3.) The newest shop at the Westfield Montgomery mall doesn't sell anything at all—it's an education center for Tesla Motor's latest car, the Model S sedan

4.) The recent decline in gas prices could be temporary, which could be enough to make one at least consider checking out that Tesla gallery.

5.) Don't forget about Maryland's tax-free shopping week, which lasts until Saturday. (No, it doesn't apply to the Tesla Model S.)
