Groceries are on the patio here too.... will be carrying it all back inside if power stays on another hour or so.

Yep. Plano is sending out emergency calls telling us this could last through Tuesday with the power outages. Mine just came back on after six and a half hours off. I am feverishly recharging all my devices. LOL. It was 53 in my house when it came back on. I may start burning furniture in my fire place.

They just shut off the power for Plano area.My daughter just texted me that she called and they have a recording saying they are shutting off power for an hour at a time. I assume it is a rolling thing. She and my sil live 5 minutes from me. If you live in Plano and your opower isn't off yet, get ready. Your turn is coming.

Mine was off maybe 15 minutes and just came back on so I don't know what they mean by an hour at a time. It must be a rolling thing. Just found out the recording says 15 minutes to an hour at a time. I must have been on the fifteen minute cycle. The next one may be an hour.

I live in Texas because of freedom but my secondary reason is I hate cold weather.

145AM: Power Emergency Level 3 from ERCOT due to demand nearly outpacing production. Rotating blackouts in progress. Rotating outages primarily affect residential neighborhoods and small businesses and are typically limited to 10 to 45 minutes before being rotated to another location.

My daughter is literally five minutes away on the other side of Legacy and hers is still out while mine is back on. I assume I will be out again before long.

Is yours out yet?
