I’m in Harris County, just north of Houston. I, and 45% of Centerpoint users, are without power. I did not choose a wind plan. Centerpoint did not harden its phone or computer systems before the storm, so customers cannot contact them and they haven’t sent out any network wide text messages. I have not heard one bit of info from Centerpoint to the media all day. I have been without power since 2am and no contact from the company that supplies my power.
I’m in Montgomery county, have Entergy. Got 3 emails this morning around 6, lost power at 5. Since then, nothing and of course you cant contact them and ask a question.
Going on 14 hours, and the firewood stack is pretty low now.
I’m sure everything will better after it warms up, in 4 days or so.
