4,186,666 customers out of power - yesterday at same time of day in Texas, it was 2,842,736 without power

It's -5 degrees right now where we are. We have had frost and ice on the INSIDE of our windows for the past couple of days. It's warm inside, but the windows iced up. Too much condensation I guess. Shoved some towels under them.

DAYUM it's cold here - 24 below....

Power is still on, thank God.

Don’t be so smug. Eventually every person & every state will be impacted by Tribulation. One asteroid & 1 wave & Florida is the worst state to live in. Have some compassion.

I am in Florida too and you should shut the hell up. These people are actually suffering. People will die as a result of not having heat or the fuel or money to pay for the fuel tonight. Worse some will have gotten carbon monoxide poisoning in desperation. So shut up about your flip flops and have some karma.

I love you Beeches...thanks for trying. You've done immaculate things trying to connect people. You are a force of nature.

Austin Tx. Power out since 0200 CST, just restored an hour ago (~0245 CST).

*Edit* for clarification. Out 0200 CST night before, just over 24 hrs total outage.

I wish

I wish it were more so.

thank you

Today I am beginning to feel the secrecy hiding the decisions that led to this.

Wind turbines in a state blessed with oil and gas?

you don't build igloos on the equator.
you don't make a palm frond hut at the North Pole.


would be insane.

Texas needs power generation suited to ITS needs, not AOC's

After this is over you all need to learn to adapt your infrastructure so that next time it can withstand this and you have alternatives.

DFW area here. -3 degrees. 93% humidity.
We never lost power. Were one of the lucky ones. So far.
I do have solar panels and a battery bank and 2 gas fireplaces that were designed to heat. Each can put out 75,000 BTU's. And I have a water filter, a home -made one with two Berkey filters. Cell service is spotty to non-existant in areas. I have a amature radio license and my daughter has a radio too, so we are able to communicate.

It's going to warm to like 23 today, but will only have sun till noon, then more freezing rain and snow predicted.

I live in Florida. It is real bad here. I had to put socks on with my flip flops this morning. I might have to wear a shirt this evening.

My orange tree survives minus a few degrees C ok here in the UK. Just out of interest but if its below minus 5C your orange trees are going to start to die.

Thank you! We do need good power generation. I haven’t slept in two days because of the constant power on/off. Don’t get me wrong I’m thankful for some power. Others are going 40+ without. :(

Yeah, but up North we sure do enjoy watching y'all tards run from hurricanes.

It evens out.

I’m in Fort Worth and getting power for 1 hour on, 1 hour off. All water pipes running except for one hot water in master bath. Have PEX water lines that expand with ice, so fingers crossed no rupture. Also have no internet service.

My son moved down to Texas a couple months ago from Timmins ON.

It almost seems the weather followed him where cold and black outs are not uncommon, however the insulation of southern houses is of concern.

Hopefully the shit weather will clear out quickly and Texans can recover as they usually do.

Take care

thanks Randa

it's all additive

how is he doing there?
