It’s funny that the examples listed have nothing to do with hurricanes, and were actually polar vortexes from the north, and just general heat waves. Nothing “extraordinary” other than temperature.

Then you’re mistaken. I’ve already acknowledged the one time power went out due to polar vortex. Heat waves have not taken out power in Houston. The power outages in Houston are caused almost exclusively by hurricanes/tropical storms.

other than when it happened it didn’t happen.
Okay there bud
Maybe hold on a little longer as well.

I don’t have a response to someone who’s only strategy is to intentionally misrepresent my comments.

Oh fuck off they lost power for over a million people last year because of a cat 1 hurricane that didn’t even directly hit them.

You not only didn’t answer my question but you were extremely rude while not doing it.

I don’t have patience for sealioning. Expect rudeness while doing that.

I don’t have the patience for people who contribute nothing to the conversation except unwarranted antagonism. Expect to be blocked while doing that.
