Don't tell people where you are or what you're doing. It's scary enough sleeping outside. 🙏🏾🙏🏾🙏🏾

THANK GOD SHE HAS A CAR.

Thank you to the reporter out talking to real people ❤❤❤

I’m sorry for the situation and hope power is restored. Still please be careful going on TV and showing your house, telling the public you don’t lock it, and sharing where you sleep, etc. keep your security in mind.

This heat is miserable !!!!! Especially at night. I hope her power is restored 🙏

Sad. I am in Humble too on day 8 of no electricity.

I'm have been sleeping in my car for a week also.. SENDING PRAYERS LOVE AND HUGS

I just got electricity back this evening and have been staying in the back of my Prius with my dogs for the same reason. I'm beyond thankful my car has been easy on gas. This has been so mentally and emotionally draining.

😢 I'm so sorry Ms. Christina ❤❤❤🙏🏽

Is her door lock electric or something? Why wouldn’t she be able to lock the door?

I'm so saddened to hear hers and so many others are STILL without power?!!! I live in South Texas, I've been without for weeks & know how horrible & unbearable it is... Prayers it comes back on soon!!! Houston Really needs to step up & come up with a Master plan to Ensure this doesn't happen again!!!! it's unacceptable! 🙏♥

She's not the only one :( .. been camping out for a bit .. this is NUTS

Why can’t she lock her doors?

Sorry for all those suffering in the heat without power. You are blessed that you have a car, that you can put gas in and have the air conditioner run. Many elderly don't even have that. Hopefully , this power is restored. Maybe save and invest in a solar generator, if this area is frequently prone to such outages.

Even as weather conditions worsen, people still deny it. Weather wise the future for Texas looks bad and on top of that, people keep moving there making thing even worst. More people more problems.

Is her home some kind of electric locking mechanism? why can't she lock the home otherwise?

Absolutely horrible! This is HOUSTON??

My heart goes out to these people, 5 days in Humble for us & it was HELL, I can’t imagine going beyond the 5th day. It’s so hot you can’t breathe

Thank you so much for keeping these stories alive

Sleeping in car isn’t safe. 😢

Everyone in Tx and other areas prone to outages needs to get a good generator for power outages. Centerpoint should provide their customers with generators until they get their act together. I live in a rural area and seldom have outages, certainly in part because they are constantly trimming back trees from power lines. I went 2 weeks without power after a Cat 3 hurricane and the neighborhood pulled out grills and cooked everything in their freezers and fed the entire neighborhood for days.

Wow praying for u

I encourage everyone that has the means to take emergency preparedness seriously. After not having power in the winter I forced myself to acquire certain things. I had to make some sacrifices. But it’s a one and done situation. After that, you have insurance for your household. If you can afford it, just do it.

God bless her .. this is terrible and totally unacceptable

I ain't hating! I did the same thing when my power went out during the hurricane 🌀.

I wouldn't be putting or posting this too many things out there

I hope she gets her power on quick. I noticed that the neighborhood still have the old transformers, they need to get the new ones and maybe that will help.

that is the pits - so glad your children are safe

That’s terrible. I can’t imagine trying to live in all the heat with no relief from the heat. These utility companies are nothing but monopolies that bleed people dry trying to pay them. I bet none of the upper managers are living without electricity. It’s almost like this country is becoming a third world country.

Keep doing interviews with people who need electricity and the power trucks will show up just like in this story. When phone calls don’t work then having bad publicity about a company usually produces results.

My mom is in Pasadena with circuit level damage. I'm in Springbranch with circuit level damage. People in Baytown, Pearland, Livingston. This is very different from the Derecho winds.

Greg abbot is in Milwaukee with Trump instead of helping Texas

Center point should be sued by all

Pray no other storm comes in next month.

Super sas..prays

Confused Windows in her home must don’t let down

We spent 10 days out of our place it is really a hard situtation safety wise,health wise,& even work wise.

It's sad that it take the media to bring them there!!! That tells that the maps are not accurate. Just wondering had the reporter not done this report whether she would still be there without power!

Ummm, I did too

These local "news" stations need to stay on top of this issue regularly from now on. Especially AFTER everyone's power has been restored. Accidents and storms happen yes. But the aging grid issues, lack of foresight PRIOR to storms and response times need to be addressed. Just covering it after failures isn't enough. Instead of covering the weather FOUR DIFFERENT TIMES during a 30 min news segment, cover and expose these problems regularly to help us with future outage issues.

buy a portable generator

:( I feel so sorry for everyone.. from my family here in Utah 🙏 this is the stuff that happens when you don't have to have regulations for your Rich buddies

How did our ancestors survive without A/C?

Heat can be a death sentence for many people.This is outrageous,I bet city officials wouldn't put up with this if the shoe was on the other foot!

I'd be packing up and moving to Michigan.

It just really sucks that there's the people there and the ability to do this but the company and the bureaucracy with work orders is dragging this out

Amen 🙏

Someone please help her she's upset

I slept in a hospital parking lot in my car in front of security when the inside of my house was too hot. Weird times we live in.

I was in my car a lot too it was terrible

Been through this exact same thing so so many times , I think it was 3 weeks we lost power for after Ike. That was the longest I think that was eveb longer then Rita. I know the pain of not being able to sleep at night because you are so hot. Every summer this happens to a lot of us and seems like it’s getting worse and worse every year.

I hope you are not picking and choosing who you're going to help whether they're considered humble or not?

So how will houstonians be compensated for this. I lost a month worth of groceries. I can’t shower I can’t cook I can’t SEE I can’t sleep. I need some money for this mess.

At least she got a car to sleep in ..i dont

Why would she say on tv she cant lock her door 🤦‍♀️ nobody would of knew that

To think that there are people who have nothing and live in the streets. How fortunate it must be to at least have a vehicle and a home, albeit without electricity.

Deregulation at its best

I see the value of world oldest profession gets impacted by personal desires and comforts😂 prices drop when not propped up by those 2 things😂 they start begging for some relief🎉

Lol you can't come stay with me lol not my problem.

💔

Lot of unprepared people. Apparently it’s something new that we have hurricanes here. 😂 and why can’t ya lock your doors . They are mechanical and use a key .

😢

Start calling your city councilman if you don’t have power. Let them know you need help.

If the lights go out they gone be doomed u can just tell😮😮😮😮😮

Nobody should know she can't lock up her home. What city and state is this?

Do an investigation on what areas were serviced 1st. ......in America certain ones are always 1st. 😉

Bro - it’s just a house. Go be comfortable at your mom’s house. You can’t work at your mom’s house? I don’t understand. Human life and comfort > material belongings. This decision of hers to stay separated from her family and sleep in a car and then be worn out by it….DUH!!!! Idiocracy again and again and again.

Thousands of people are living in their cars all over USA.

can’t lock ur doors?? wasn’t this the same state that wanted to be a lone country??? 😂🤙

Sistas don’t cry

She missed her kids? Where are they? If She has a house, why is she sleeping in her car??? I mean we were out of power for 7 days but we still had water to, shower, and many organisations, and community centers were given away water, ice and food. To keep the house cool we just opened many windows in the house. We were out of power for 7 days but we were still be able to find gas, and food. Many stores were open🙄 Fast food restaurants and even food trucks!!! Yes it is bad but come on people!! Relax. I feel bad for babies, young children and elderly, disable, and sick people but the rest have to do the best in a bad situation.

Meanwhile alot of people live on the street or a old car without AC... That woman is NOT humble, what a crock of shite lol. How can she not lock her doors¿ Too much "smart" technology. I'm glad I dont have to answer these peoples calls but when they call their car insurance because they want so fuel or a tow or wreck, then I get to deal with these people, sheesh I don't want any callers from the state of TX, they are worse than the cry babies in NY/NJ double.

She can come stay with me 🥰

Center point sucks!

A dog?! Gross! 🤢
