Since the early hours of 2-14-21, we have been experiencing rolling blackouts in my area of Central Texas,S.E. of Austin. These blackouts have been occurring at exactly 17 minute intervals for the entire day today. "17" minutes on, then "17" minutes off. There's that darn number again. Pray for us, because we are single digit temps, and 17 minutes of power does not heat anyones home.

So sorry to hear that. I know you guys in TX are even less equipped to handle snow than we are here in central KY. We're supposed to get 3-6 inches of snow by Tues (on top of the 1/2 inch of ice we got last week) and looking at forecast, we're supposed to get more Wed/Thurs? at any rate, prayers for your and yours to stay safe and warm, hope power is restored very soon.
There was a 130-car pile up on I-35W from theblack ice on the roads in Fort Worth, TX on 2/10/21. 2 semi trucks collided with the 2nd semi running up the back of the semi in front of it like a ski ramp! 6 dead and dozens badly injured. Someone captured the whole thing on video from the other side of the highway. Insane shit!
