I’m currently at my parents’ house due to the Texas weather. We’re safe and warm, but my neighborhood, 5 miles away, has been without power since noon. Every time our “rolling” blackout occurred, it would take longer and longer for it to come back. I’m lucky that my parents live so close to and to our town’s essential departments so their power has not gone off. My neighbors, unless they were able to get into a hotel/motel, are less so. I plan to be here until Friday.

Oh dang. Glad you're okay.

Thank you. I keeping track with those who have stayed. Power was back on for three hours and it’s back out again. I am hoping it’ll only be out for a little while.

I have a friend who had to go stay with his (adult) son because of that. His son lives near a hospital and they never lost power; my friend's house is without electricity and water.

Yikes, I hope they are doing well. This storm has been an eye opener.

Crossing my fingers for all of you.

[rhyana]

Thank you.

Dang, I hope the power stays on for you lot.

We have a lot of snow here in Indy, but I'm not sure anyone has lost electricity yet. It's more the roads that are nasty as fuck.
