How did Houston members fare from last night's storm?
Current power ETR for my office is Wednesday Red Face

Message relayed via the company that owns the office park...
While WFH alleviates the commute, definitely prefer working from my desk.

5 days later and still 72,184 Centerpoint customers without power. Mainly 290 corridor between 610 and BW8.

CP map finally updated to show the office park where my office is in an outage area. ETR was supposed to be today, but as of this post, still no power.
1 week as of 630p tomorrow.

Edit: Work from home has my days skewed, it'll be a week on Thursday.
As of 6:45a today [5/22] still no power at the office.

CenterPoint stopped ETR updates as of 8p last night.
Under 100k, total, now

Predominantly in the region bordered by 290/I10/610/BW8
And, a pretty big block outside 99 north of 529

My parents' neighbors had down power line from fallen tree. The line apparently was in contact with a section of the metal fence. My brother got a shock of his life, when he touched the fence, of course not knowing the line and the fence were in touch. Crazy shit. Eek

Everyone good after today's repeat?
Lost power at our office around 1pm, still down last I checked.
Couple downed limbs at home & my pool is a mess again.

Crazy winds at the office & it got nearly nighttime dark

All good. No power outage. This one today was something like half strength of the last one. And not as long. But still, 300k customers lost power, I heard.
