I can't wait to see what this line item is next month on my CenterPoint bill.

Bunch of us in 78756 have no water coming out of faucets, and it’s popping up all over our areas FB and ND.
I’m finding mixed answers on whether to fuck with hot water heater or leave it going until a good 12 hours or so have passed. Like @Okie State going to turn water heater down to pilot
It may depend on your model of water heater. I lost all pressure for 8-12 hours and just left the heaters alone. Once the pressure was back they went right back to working.
I did go up into the attic to check them when they were without pressure and it seemed to me they went dormant and that’s why I left the heaters alone.

Well, those grinning assholes on vacation are probably going to come back to a sploded house, so there's that.
Haha this. I’d love to be elsewhere but then my house would probably have imploded.

My power has now been on since yesterday afternoon (after being off since Monday at 1 AM). I still don’t understand why power can’t be cycled. According to Centerpoint’s outage map people all around me don’t have power.
Complete Frikin failure. -
HEB uses enchanted rock generators, which run on natural gas, as back up. Apparently their instruments work and they can function in extreme temperatures. Novel concept.

Power is back in 77389. That was a nice 33 hour rolling blackout.
Still no water but I prefer my heaters heating the house.

27 here! I think I get a centerpoint artic mug if I hit 36 hours.
Question: when all the faucets in my house have become a slow trickle that probably means the water pressure from the main is low?
Water temperature in house are still reasonable. I’ve managed to keep the interior between 64-66.

I’m still not having fun. I feel like this would have be more fun before I had kids or I was a property owner. Damn growing up and having responsibilities.

Fuck this shit. I’ve been without power since 2 am. Thankfully my house seems to have been built well.
I built an aluminum funnel to direct heat from my range out into my house. I also finally figured out how to turn on my damn remote fire place manually. I’ve managed to get the downstairs thermostat to read 67. It’s near the fire place. And the upstairs is reading 71!
I have the three week old sleeping in his bassinet near the fire and the two year old in his room upstairs with the door open.
As long as the gas supply stays steady I think I’m going to make it.

We’re on what I understand is a “higher priority” circuit due to a large assisted living facility nearby.
That hasn’t helped this time. They are offline, too.
My parents on the other side of Spicewood have power. So that’s good. And if the wife and boy need to spend the night there, they can. I’ll probably stay here, sleep by the fire, and do what I can to warm up pipes if power comes on.Same for me. I can count one time we lost power for longer then 15 minutes in the 5 years I’ve lived here.
I always figured the assisted living around the corner helped. Not this time!

Damn, didn't even see that post... -18 in JH without a wind chill probably ?
Haha yea funny coincidence.
Correct. That was not factoring wind chill.

110 in the middle of the outback. I flew home and 48 hours later I was in Jackson Hole where it was -18.

My gas range is somehow keeping my house warm. It’s 70 upstairs and 66 downstairs. Power has been off since 1:30 or so.

No power since 2:30. Not sure what the temperature inside the house is, but 60 or less wouldn’t surprise me. If the power doesn’t come on in the next few hours, I may have to brave the roads and take my kids to relatives’ houses. This sucks.
Yup. I’m thinking the same thing right now.

Says there is 30,000 mw generation forced off the system. Seems not good.

Clearly not rolling blackouts here. Just a blackout.
