That is awesome compared to Hurricane Ike which had major areas

I presume this outage is due to too many people turning on their air

 You somehow missed hearing anything about Beryl?
 <https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hurricane_Beryl>
 "[...]  The second named storm, first hurricane, and first major hurricane
of the 2024 Atlantic hurricane season, Beryl broke many meteorological
records for the months of June and July, primarily for its unusual location,
intensity, and longevity."

We have been living the dream of Beryl down here in Houston for almost two weeks now.  Lived on the genny for four days.  Walking outside, it was a concert of genny's in all directions.
