Cincinnati, OH. Apartment complex is split in two halves (firewall in between).
One half is normal. Other half is 40-50 degrees.
Started Friday morning, thermostat at 70, temperature at 65. By noon it drifted down to 60.
Come to find out entire side of the building was like this. Was even very noticeable walking the hallways that half the building was exceptionally cold, half was normal.
Apartment manager was very specific that the furnaces are not broken. Tried to say they ‘weren’t keeping up.’ However I know how little they run to keep me warm on a normal cold day. Just because it was zero outside in no way would make the furnace only able to maintain 45 degrees. He also kept dodging my questions, giving corporate responses. Talked like a CIA trained drone/politician.
The only answer is curtailing, Whether by the apartment complex or by the electric utility.
Wanted to see if anyone else had issues?
This was interesting here in TN. Rolling blackouts within days of democrats being named to the board of the TVA, a federal power facility. Why is power federalized? In the mean time, this is a green energy push.

Thanks. Hadn’t heard this. Yep our local Tva powered cooperative was rolling blackouts Friday and yesterday.
YW. Pisses me off.
It was better today, how about for you? We live in Maryville, kind of south of Knoxville and in the Foothills of the Smoky Mtns. It's warmer today, now we have snow and bad roads.
Yes we only had our power cut off the first two days. We were warmer too and got more snow so the roads refroze after dark so lots of accidents. Should melt more today and tomorrow. We are actually headed to pigeon forge on Thursday. Thankfully the forecast is warmer for the next few days. Blackhawk is doing a free outdoor concert on New Year’s Eve at The Island. We are buddies with a couple of the band members so we are pretty stoked to be going. Just hoping it won’t rain. :)
