It's the old saying "lower your expectations". This is very disorganized and the times of door to door field solution oriented is masked by administration, systems, specialized crews that do one task, etc. its like school districts with far too much administration / oversight. Going back to yell at the clouds.

Got a couple of reports of independent sightings of a bunch of trucks in 77062. CP emailed last night saying we should have power by the end of the day. We will see.

In the meantime, I've chopped power to the a/c so we can run the washer and dryer.

Even though we have crews in our hood, zero communication from CenterPoint.

Yep. Haven't seen one truck all week, although supposedly there were some here yesterday.

You should just be grateful. They shouldn't have to tell you a status. (Total sarc)

I've seen zero activity or utility trucks in our neighborhood, too. I saw one CP truck parked by a small strip center across the street from our subdivision. The guy in the truck was just sitting there from what I could tell.

I had two full line trucks and a supervisor truck last night in mills branch near kingwood drive. Thought i might be out, but no. They turned on like 4 streets then left around 5.

Still see a disconnect on the lines open. No other issue with the lines as far as i can see.

Trucks were north line trucks.

Going on 129+ hours.

I'm still seeing that we are getting power today on the map, but I'm not seeing any evidence that there's activity on the power line behind my house. My skepticism is rising.

77494 Katy at 127 hours no power. They brought on the whole neighborhood Wednesday minus about 40 homes they couldn't fix immediately so they put in a ticket and took off in search of higher numbers…. Our section shows energized on the map which means we've been forgotten and they'll come back at the end. Calling every few hours confirms no crew has been assigned to fix it and that is that.

Same.

Saw three trucks yesterday and then they stopped working.

Nothing going on around my house or neighborhood but turning on today.

Sure. Pull the other one.

Forgive me if I'm wrong and y'all are seeing something else, but the dates are for when the neighborhood is energized. Local area with downed lines or fried transformers (nested outages) will require even more time, for which they will not give ETAs. I've been green (energized) the whole time and reported the downed line behind us multiple times and CenterPoint still won't give me an ETA since I'm a nested outage.

Doing quick math, I'm going to need ~56 gallons of fuel to make it until then and another oil change. Good times!
