11 days without power: Pasadena neighbors feel forgotten amid restoration efforts

[@Feonalilly]

Im in Pasadena, too. Fortunately, i share a grid with a hospital, so i was able to get my power back within 4 hours after the storm

[@VivaLaZach]

Shit I'm lucky too. I'm on the same grid as the fire station so I get power quick

[@KennyFox-gb5ro]

That's crazy😮 I made it 7 days only and was ready to lose my mind

[@philliphall5198]

Having a gas generator and a small electric window AC unit is a life saver Don’t take but 30 minutes to stick in a window and you can cool off a little

[@Kathy-x6l]

I think that centerpoint Xfinity and AT&T should give us credit for all of the days we were without power

[@RLFinTX]

I think they were more happy about cool air than lights.

[@sassygirl7462]

Prayers for power restored to all who need it! 🙏🙏🙏

[@SionisMills]

Great news to hear that you get power back .

[@dsstewbaby9]

Vote Abbot out.

[@ClearestofGlues]

Tf does abbot have to do with this you troglodyte?

[@williamwilson6499]

Maybe some of them have learned the importance of prepping for emergencies. But I doubt it.

[@vgarcia9724]

Harvey was a water storm, Beryl was strong winds. That wby we had so much more power outages and damage,

[@lmarislmarislmaris4271]

It was a weak storm, and it hit Caribbean islands as cat4 and their power was restored quicker. Abbott talked tough to Centerpoint after the 2021 catastrophe then took their campaign contributions and gave them a pass. Doing so again. He could not care less about Texans.

[@guadaluperamirez6564]

CenterPoint has no excuse.

[@BarrierIsland]

If CenterPoint had just done the tree trimming...

[@diw.824]

My lights were off for a while month when Hurricane IKE hit and we didn't get any help at all back in 2008.

[@arthurfoyt6727]

We lost power for almost 3 weeks with Hurricane Ike.

[@Mhel2023]

11 days for me and a friend of mine in Oak Forest went 2 weeks after Ike hit

[@dude8273]

oh that feels like a life time ago. no power for 2 and a half weeks after Ike. i remember playing monopoly with my mom and my brother under candle lights. i had no smart phone back then so i listened to a radio and read newspapers for update.

[@A3Kr0n]

I'll bet the Centerpoint executives are not without power.

[@lmarislmarislmaris4271]

CEO did an interview in his office with thermostat set to 70F

[@BigVegasAlwaysWins]

Abbott's Texas

[@theoriginaldashriprock]

Well, sadly the reality is it is pasadena. Everybody has long forgotten Pasadena and for good reason.

[@missladyanonymity]

What? "For good reason?"

[@theoriginaldashriprock]

@@missladyanonymity yes

[@MargDBX]

DEREGULATION HAS CONSEQUENCES

[@annjohnson6387]

It’s on the east side of town!

[@lmarislmarislmaris4271]

West side too. Our power goes out every day.

[@p2a0p2e0r1]

When you earn the nickname "Stinkadena" you can't expect to be anything else but last in line.

[@mariomosqueda1015]

[@hateprotoss]

[@Celeste0430]

Criminal!!!!

[@marshagreenwood6825]

I pray for peace and comfort. People need to wake up and quit grumbling. They have no idea how lucky they are. Where is the grace? Where is the gratitude? You still have a home and generator. You have life! Shame on you! I pray people wake up. Peace and love be with you in the Name of Jesus.

[@TapatioGang713]

Harvey was rain 😂 . Pasadena needs to blame theor mayor

[@bennoble2049]

“ How do you survive?” Give me a break. These people don’t know how good they have it. Imagine living in one of the numerous third world countries without power. Get over yourself.
