And you though you would rule the world, when we all died... Silly man.
Demand leveling out, as people settle in for bed. Plenty of surplus 20k mW avaliable with 8k mW in reserve as of right now
Centerpoint reporting 15k without power right now
Tree down, or drunk rolled a poll. Ain't because of the grid. Good news is everyone is on call. Hopefully they get power back soon

Email sent. The bourbon is flowing tonight. Might need to replenish.
Ours is out.
I have talked to multiple people who are choosing to shut off their water main and go without running water for three days despite being home the entire time rather than just drip faucets. What???
ABC weather guy went full re**** yesterday, and said that's what's he was doing. I imagine that's where they they got it from.
Ptsd after last Feb is a real thing
I'm seeing 13 degrees with 20 mph wind here on NE side at 6 a.m. Holy Satsumas, that's cold.

Houston water pressure after all the morons shut off their water.

Trending 5 degrees colder than forecast. I'm expecting 17 or 16 here in Seabrook

Hahaha, no *****.
My outside remote temp sensor is - -. I replaced the batteries this week. Even that POS can't handle the Houston Cold (said no one ever).
I did drip my two garage faucets, not sure if the RO filter out there will make it.

Expecting to lose water to our subdivision sometime overnight. Dumbasses in charge of our community well were oblivious that cold weather was coming today and they never winterized the system since 2021.
LOEN??
This MF ain't stoppin for *****
Happened to wake up at 5 AM and decided to take a lap around the house and step outside.
Two of my faucets had stopped dripping, guess I didn't set them aggressively enough. Once I had cleared the volume of water inside the house line (I'm guessing) that was some of the coldest water from the tap I've ever felt

Our heater decided to crap out overnight. Awesome.
I got 14 from the house here in Cypress

Time to quit it all and just live in a hotel.
17 degrees here in memorial.
Havent walked outside but i dont see river flowing down my drive so hopefully no pipe breaking.
I am drained all the pipes last night though.
Was really nice to go to sleep last night and not stress about pipe breaking like i did in 2021.
Don't understand all the crapping on draining pipes, its not that big of a deal going without water for day and half.

I don't mind the cold. Not overly concerned about it (no olds or kids here).
But I just don't want the lack of heat to exacerbate an issue with frozen pipes in some way. We left our cabinet doors open below the sinks and dripped them, but we'll see. And I don't want the repair bill either.

15 currently here in The Woodlands
I'm enjoying the hell out of this weather bc I have power (and generator worked for the 1 hour power delay we had)
Totally different than the Great Freeze of 21

Saw where a metrobus hit a transformer on washington avenue last night knocking out power to all the apartments and HEB. Classic…. Dang it ERCOT!! /sarc
16 in Katy. Feels like 1. No thank you!

the wind on the drive to work this morning was blowing my car all over the road.

Pier & beam house. Dripping failed in URI, so we drained on advice from plumber a few doors down.
Turned off last night, may turn on this afternoon, worse case scenario it'a noon tomorrow. So maybe 12 hours in the house with no water. Hardly the end of the world
For record keeping… cold as sheeeyat. In The Woodlands
