Civilization Texas winter storm: Over 70,000 Texans are without power as arctic cold front hits state

[Ruffles]

HOUSTON, Texas (KTRK) -- As an arctic cold front sweeps across the state, many Texans are concerned about whether the power will stay on.

The Electric Reliability Council of Texas (ERCOT) says there is enough power to meet the demand, but still, thousands of customers across Texas are without power.

As of 1:30 p.m. Thursday, over 52,000 customers were without power in Texas. You can check the number of outages in real-time at poweroutage.us.

Most of the outages were reported in north Texas.

Bro where tf is this infrastructure plan rollout.

You know, Texans spent many a years making fun of us Yankee's because we flock to southern states when the snow is dog shit during winter. Now who's laughing?

In all seriousness, hope y'all don't lose power and everyone else that did can make it through this temporary power outage. Heard about that kid who froze to death from the last time it happened and I was sad to shit for a whole month...

Weird how the weather jumped from low 20s to feeling in the single digits with wind chill to suddenly being in the low 50s and warm as shit (relative to recent weather and temperatures) despite heavy rain and fog here in NoVA
