    This is bs. Makes me mad. I wrote this in another post. My neighbor who is plus 50 i saw him all alone this whole week. My chick works at a meat market place and we got like 4 bags of ice. I felt so bad for my neighbor i gave him my cooler with ice and a milwaukee fan that works with batteries but this is not acceptable. Centerpoint should get sue!!!! We pay so much and they dont care or didnt nothing. Mh friend in another area still hasnt gotten power smh

    People just need to be better prepared. You need to be prepared for extended outages. My area had a 2 week long outage this passed January during below freezing temperatures. It showed me holes in my own emergency preparedness. There were too many downed trees. This is our new normal and people need to prepare. Government won't save you.

    If the businesses complain maybe the utility companies will upgrade the grid. People dieing unfortunately will not change the system. The people who die are relatively poor , no family or having money to rent hotel rooms , cannot afford or able to operate generators etc.

      Now now, we can't cite actual history and data. It's much better for ratings and clicks and votes to pile on the CenterPoint-is-negligent-stupid-greedy-and-criminal bandwagon. Under no circumstances can we even suggest that CenterPoint isn't accountable for every bead of sweat in all of Harris County.
      CenterPoint's real failure IMO is their abysmal communications, both in enabling people to report an ususual, critical need and in providing credible estimated restoration dates. And IMO the local media gets a lot of blame for continually fanning up resentment, anger, and frustration rather than facilitating effective communication where CenterPoint is obviously so weak.

    • @SeizingJday
      @SeizingJday 5 месяцев назад +5

      While a fair comparison, Ike was a cat 2 vs a cat 1/tropical storm (depending on where in htx) and less depended on having electricity in 08. Most importantly, Ike was in early-mid September vs early-mid July which makes this one MUCH hotter of an aftermath
      Also, the video of someone dying due to power outages may not be the best place to say the power restoration is "actually going well"
