@@kahallett9394 The problem is not a local politician or a delayed transaction to request help. The problem exists since years ago with a decaying Grid and electricity generation unable to supply enough energy in sunny days much less on winter storms. Abbott promised Texas to tighten regulation on ERCOT thru PUC (Public Utility Commission) after more than 70 people died in TX during the winter storm. He also gave us his "Thoughts and Prayers"... Years later, Texas population (regardless of political affiliation), still waiting for underground cabling, protected transformers, enough generators, etc Electric poles with cables dangling between them are early 1900 technology. Houston needs underground cabling inside sealed pipes because of floods. ERCOT chooses to spend money during natural disasters instead of forking the money needed for upgrades. They measure risks and compare against costs... 💥🇺🇲💥

People have already been running gas power generators for several days, safely or not. Isn't it a bit late to remind them the hazardous of carbon monoxide? The fire marshal should have sent message out even before the day one of the hurricane.

The restoration map is not professional. It is difficult to locate a specific area. It does not support to search an area by zip code or by address, which is essential in particular since many lack good resources for computer or cellphone to navigate this dumb web application during the power outage.

And I notice they change the color schema for the map. The blue color at first indicated assessment is completed with a plan to restore. After a couple of days, it changed to assessment is completed. The next step is green. There is no longer a status that indicates a concrete plan to restore is set up. I guess this change of color schema would result more blue percentage, a smart move for the convenience of achievement claims. I volunteer to work with Center Pointless to investigate how much they spent for this map of so little user friendness.
