Sitting just south of Tomball knowing we’ll be getting hurricane force winds all night. And more than likely will lose electricity which means it’ll be hot and muggy for weeks. Lost electricity this morning....power company said it was a “line fuse”. Took ‘em 3 hours to fix it. I can only imagine how long it will take when 3,000,000 households are without. And that’s what they’re predicting. This is a bad storm!

They did a pretty good job after Rita. We lost power for about 10 hours. With all the outages they were faced with that was pretty quick.

They have HLP/Reliant crews on stand by at several staging areas in the BW8/45 area. Pretty sure they are ready in other areas.
