Been off for a bit this time. Bout to fire up the stovetop.

Powers been on for around an hour now so hopefully supply is meeting demand. Still dumping snow outside.

Hope your xritters stay warm.

Holy cow, 8:30! I have gotten estimated from Oncor before like that and it only turned out to be 29-30 minutes so hopefully the case here.

Off and on twice so far here in far north Fort Worth. I have animals sensitive to the cold so if it starts to get cold I will move all sensitive things to the main room and manually light some burners on the stove and let them run for 15 or so minutes every little while. I had to do it before years ago when we had our last really cold snap and they blacked us out.

It works but it’s a pain to keep up with it all and remain safe. Looks like I’ll be on watch the rest of this cold night. Don’t forget that if you have gas it is an option.
