I live just outside of Houston, its currently 5:32 pm and the storm has subsided. The problem is no longer the Storm, its the lack of power and the rising Temps. There is a lot of fallen trees and debris, but the flooding has mostly subsided and I haven't seen any rain since this morning. Seemingly not too bad for those wondering

It is an issue with the Texas grid because all others are connected so when some area loses power, others fill in the gaps. Texas' disconnected lone grid doesn't get help because Texas governor doesn't want it to. They've invited us to join the grid. Blame Abbott.

@@vivianatrevino6212actually, blame Rick Perry. We had an ice storm in 2011 that should have been enough to want to protect the grid from another ice storm. Abbott was the attorney general, so it’s not like he wasn’t aware of the issues. You could also blame George W Bush because that’s when Texas electricity was deregulated. You could also blame the actual hurricane itself, since even in blue states, when those hit, they lose power. …it’s just not for long. Couple days. Right now, it’s not about generating enough electricity, like what happened in 2021. The problem is actually about getting power to those homes with down lines. So really, I blame the storm for the downed lines. I blame republican officials for 2021.
