Texas wasn't the only state with storm problems.
Our part of Bellevue lost power for just over an hour. The temp was about -15 and we didn't know it was a rolling blackout. We had no idea when power was going to be restored.

(34,105 posts)Somehow it caused some problems in the house, off and on...not the rolling black outs. We had to have them come and fix it but it was not bad enough to make us too uncomfortable even at -25. The barn still does not have the heater. It messed it up badly. Man out to fix it twice and he fixed it but it went off shortly after he left both times. Coming again tomorrow. I have electric heaters in there to try to save the pipes that are not off because they need fixing now. Thankfully it has been warmer.

(27,556 posts)annoying AF, but better than none... The grid was so bad in TX that they couldn't do proper rolling brownouts ... Instead it was all, none, or like me 50/50 the whole time
