    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.

    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!

    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.

    Haha. Count your blessing. Power has been out since 1:30 AM with centerpoint.

    You don’t say!

    Yup. I’m thinking the same thing right now.

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

    Balcones single malt for now. Clearly not rolling blackouts here. Just a blackout.

    Same. I think we live within a few miles of each other.

    Give me some of that power. please.

    Time stamps.
  15. Telegraph_it
    Yup. And hour an 15 now for me. Upstairs has dropped 4 degrees. Downstairs 3 in that time. It’s frikin 18 according to Hooks.

    The power went out right as the little one wanted to nurse. So I’d be up anyway.

    It’s been 45 min without power now. Kids rooms are starting to get a little cold. Could really use this 10-45 min rolling blackout thing to be true or I am going to have to move them.

    I have the upstairs at 76 which means the bedrooms are 72-73. I got two kiddos under 2 that don’t sleep with blankets. Sorry ercot. I am impressed my house is keeping up for now.

    Jeff is on the case in OK. Multiple vehicle wreck and a fire.

    Turn the damn windmills out west to max power.

    The code must have been changed recently. My cutoff is in the garage. I doubt my builder went above and beyond. I also apparently have those fancy spigots shown a few pages back. Which is good because I don’t have a 1500w hairdryer.

    What is this shit on the window!?!?

    I should have evacuated to the J hole house. Seems counter intuitive to go north but that house can withstand -100 probably.
