AHS is out and even the emergency lights aren't coming on. My son sent me a pitch dark picture from his classroom. Boy I feel sorry for the teachers!

I've been getting Ring notifications from around Atascocita all morning… hope this doesn't continue through this arctic front…

@Vinbert : Just received 4 ring.com notifications about power outages in different areas. One of them being Woodland Hills area. Kinda of worried about Monday and Tuesday.

@Floyd : Ditto! 😂

Parts of Walden have been in the dark since 7:20.

I went to Centerpoints outage there are alot people in Kingwood without power

All these out!

@Vinbert : I just finished round 2 of that. Wondering how many more times it will happen before the wind quits.

@Vinbert: CenterPoint said that it was 'equipment failure'. Didn't divulge which equipment or why, though. Seems to have calmed down now. Time for another round of Fix The Clocks!

@Itsme : I lost power twice. 5 minutes on first drop and 20+ on the second drop. The wind blows in Kingwood and the power goes out. Rrrr.

Every time its windy ya'll.. Every time.. lol

@Cbear : not surprising since they have so many beautiful trees.

@Lace :
Honestly, I just find it amazing, in a place where the majority of the power lines are buried, that the power goes on and off as much as it does! Imagine if all the lines were on poles!
What's that main cable hooked up to the plant with? Duct tape? Bubble gum?

@Cbear :
It's ok. As long as I stay away from my computer, it seems to stay on. 2 different times I went back here to research something, on my "break" from cleaning, and both times, the minute I sat down, bam, it was gone.

@Vinbert :True dat....I've said the same thing....When I lived in Houston pre-2000's, all the lines were on poles in my 'hood and, ironically, we pretty much never lost power....It took a hell of a storm to knock it out....And if it did go out, it was on in less than two hours....We never had a generator then....When I moved out here, at first the power would go out with just a large breeze, but never stayed off long....The outages eventually became less and less frequent over the years....Then, all of a sudden around the "Covid Years", we've got the flakiest grid I've experienced....Now I lose power several times a year and not even because of bad weather...And the power stays off 8 hours or more at times....It's to the point that I have to constantly keep 5gallons of fresh Gas in my backyard shed just in case I have to dig out my portable generator because of long term power loss...And the "slap in the face" is that I noticed Centerpoint recently raised their rates on my monthly bill....So the service is getting less dependable but the consumer's cost is rising?......Sign 'o the times!....
