I really hope that time estimate is not correct. Seen a lot for power trucks all over the area in the last hour. Anyone know who's responsible for clearing those trees from the power lines? HOA? CenterPoint? Seems like a lack of maintenance on someone's behalf contributes to this.
DSSDad : Centerpoint is responsible for maintaining their line right of way.
Really hoping with the crews in the Kingwood area that they get your power restored tonight. I drove around and counted at least 10 trucks. 🤞
DSSDad : I bet they assessed the situation already and are getting the equipment there and will start working on it tomorrow at daylight? If somebody goes by Holy Comforter they may see trucks there and could even work at night.
DSSDad : Centerpoint is responsible for maintaining their line right of way.
buffaloglenn : When we lived in Florida, those power companies would always be trimming Right-of-Ways. They felt it was easier to do that and be proactive than reactive. Also kept customers and residents happy with them.
JeanneneA : I literally just took a cold one. We were going to grab a hotel for the night but everyone I called from Humble to New Caney was full. I hate feeling gross and my house feels unclean as well 😆
RachelS : I know what you mean about your house feeling unclean. Everything feels damp. Can't wait to have a day of cleaning with the air on and the humidity out of the house!
donnatella : Ike, it was like 2.5 weeks for us. That was when I started saving money. That was miserable and I'm so sorry we have so many still waiting for power.

billcherie2 : 5500 watts. Right now, the following is plugged into it: -Our fridge. -The garage freezer. -A stand up portable AC. -4 floor fans. -3 lights. -My coffee maker. â¤ï¸â¤ï¸â¤ï¸ -A small TV. -Tachus modem. HAnd it's charging all our cell phones & tablets. We try and turn off multiple things before we add anything else (or if we need to use multiple things at once) but right now the generator is carrying the full load and doing fine. We are adding fuel every 6-8 hours.
StormChaser : Hang in there friend! I really hope they get the power on sooner than they are saying. Maybe saying Wednesday just to cover ***.
Trailwood update (not good) A Centerpoint employee just told my neighbor it will likely be Thursday or Friday before we have power back. 😠This is why. They haven't even started to fix it yet. 🤦â€â™€ï¸ I have 2 dogs, so a hotel is not an option. We're using our mini generator to run the fridge and a few other things. Thankfully, yesterday we purchased a portable AC unit. It was $400 bucks 😳 but it has been worth it today. âœ³ï¸ I can tell you this - We have made the decision that we are getting a Generac generator ASAP after this crap! We're getting an home equity line of credit and doing it. I'm so done with this crap.
StormChaser : Friend of mine said that she was on 59 following about six or seven utility trucks that were turning on to Kingwood Drive last night. She said it was about midnight . I said oh that's so good that's so encouraging. So hopefully it gets repaired quicker This discussion has been locked.
