That would not be true, but what do you expect from an Okie, lol. Texas' grid is optimized for hot weather conditions, not snowmageddon.


Well this Okie was just going by what this Texan said in May...

"Public Utility Commission Chair Peter Lake on Wednesday warned that Texas’ main power grid is at risk for outages this summer if wind turbines don’t produce enough electricity when it’s needed. He yet again made the case that more on-demand power sources, such as natural-gas-fueled power plants or batteries, need to be built to make the grid more reliable."

However you Texans are good at generating lots of wind so I think you will be okay. :-)

I have two brothers that live in Texas so I want the lights to stay on.
