Slowly getting back to normal after a few days without power. Lights came back on last night, and it was like a luxury… Fast internet. Heater. Hot showers. The only reminder of what happened is a yard full of tree branches. Just hoping most of our live oaks survive this. ❄️

Glad you have power again. Lots of trees down up here in Cedar Park as well. We were lucky to not have lost power. It is humbling to go without power or at least helpful to remind us of the wealth we have. Power, Water. We take so much for granted. Wishing you the best.

Mike Zornek

Glad to hear. 🎉

@terrygrier Best to you as well. It really is amazing what infrastructure we have from the city when I sit back to think about it.

@pratik We have Pedernales Coop and were also disappointed with the communication. I’m sure it’s hard to estimate. But I’d love to see just more raw data… What crews are available, where, is it down power lines, how many, etc.

it’s starting to feel like everyone in Texas needs their own backup generator.

Mitch Wagner

Good grief, I had no idea you were going through that. I’m glad to hear the lights are back on.

@pratik we only lost power for 12 hours but no Internet for 3 days. Happy internet is back this morning! 😂👍🙌🏼

@terrygrier Leaving Austin on the way to Dallas this morning, I passed a line at least half a mile long of trucks towing trailers full of fallen tree branches. I guess taking them to a dump or some kind of disposal/processing facility.

Alexandra

Dang, and I thought we were getting it bad here. Good to know you have power back!

Ryan Booker

My partner’s family have been posting pictures of all the oaks etc split and fallen over around Austin. Amazing and scary! They have power back too. I’m glad things have improved. 🥶

Terry Grier

@eurobubba They mulch most of them. I think. Are you in Texas?
