Hurricane Beryl Right On Top Of Houston At This Moment

Given it's Texas, they can probably expect to have power back in a week or two.

I got a black scre3n on the cam. Power is already out.

The webcam is working again but the storm has now passed beyond that area.

Just what Houston needs, more rain

Maybe Hot Wheels should stop building his wall an invest in a little infrastructure... Just sayin'

It's cool that we're getting some of the remnants passing through Flyover in a few days. I love 'hurricane rain': it's misty and smells like the ocean.

^ It's stifling and it smells like mold

I wouldn't be hurt or offended if Beryl swept Hot Wheels out to sea, never to be seen or heard from again.

With millions now living in intense heat without power in Houston, how many will continue to deny that climate change exists?

I'm kind of an electricity addict. When the power goes out I kind of freak out. I wouldn't last a week in Texas

Pray for Texas,

My dad’s power turned back on at about 3 PM today, FWIW. He’s in Sugar Land, so I imagine a couple of hundred thousand are back online, at a minimum.

Still 2,465,193 Texans without power as of 10 minutes ago.

JFC - with this year and humidity, it’s going to be unbearable.

*Heat

Houston has two main power companies. Here is CenterPoint’s outage tracker. They’re chipping away but with all the downed lines, it’s dangerous and slow-moving work.

It's that time of year...

Has anyone seen Ted “Cancun” Cruz, lately?

How is it today, Texas Marys?

Texas Gov. Abbot is actually out of the country, while Sen. Ted Cruz is whale watching in California, lol. Who knew he cared for anything in the natural world?!
