****. Seriously???

We'll see. The storms were pretty strong earlier so should have stabilized the atmosphere, but if the sun comes out for a few hours there is a chance.

Early talk now about how it's gonna recharge and come in hot again tonight. From central texas oriented North / South this time.

Yeah, Came too early in the day, plenty of day time heating left to recharge the atmosphere.

Seems like the southwest side of town has been missing all of these big weather events that are blowing up other parts of town. *knock on wood

My roof is newly replaced after golf ball sized hail in the middle of the night back in March. I'm not complaining to have been catching just the tail end down here in Needville.

Anyone else have a power meter showing usage during the outage last week? I lost power like everyone on Thursday. Power was restored Wednesday night. My daily usage with CP and my REP (Champions) shows usage on Saturday, Sunday, Monday, and Tuesday (about $40 worth). My other meter, fed off the same pole, shows no usage from Thursday night - Wednesday night. I matched the meter number shown on my power bill to the meter number printed on the meter and verified each day that the meter wasn't powered at all - zero display at all. I did not have a leg of power up, we were totally dark.

I haven't received my newest invoice so I don't know if this is something that will correct once the meter is actually "read" digitally. The weirder part is my daily usage data on the CP website isn't zero but is about 50% lower for the off days. Once we got power back it matches the Champions' data perfectly.

Me too. Hadn't been downstairs yet.

I'm sure it will just add to the CF that is trying to get in the garage in the mornings.

Jeff Lindner just said storm potential tonight is down to 1 so they aren't expecting it now to get as bad as what we just saw. May be middle of the night as things are just crossing the border.

Marble size hail and Harvey-level street flooding in our Heights neighborhood. Giant tree came down just north of us and pulled up the gas lines with it…thankfully everyone's okay.

Since a bunch of folks are discussing tree trimming in this thread, can you ask your landscaping person to trim the trees in front of your office a little?

Here, in section 1, we only care about ourselves.

But, in all seriousness, let me know if there's anything you need we can help with.

My side of Droxford in the 'Grove got power back two days before the other side did last week. Now they are returning the favor…

Power tried to come back on three times in a row. Never quite got there, and each time ended with an electric arc somewhere in the distance.

Same exact thing just happened again.

What a damn tease.

Power was out at Kroger on Shepherd long enough for them to remove all refrigerated and frozen foods.
