No big surprise, a summer of regular blackouts in TX was predicted well before the season actually began, due to the fragility of the grid and how over-taxed it is to supply the energy demands down there. Add a little climate induced havoc, and you have an instant recipe for lights out. Fortunately given the season and the latitude, there's little danger of anyone losing their fingers or toes to frostbite, however given their dependence on HVAC heat stroke is the more pressing health issue for them.
On the positive side, they're doing better than Mexico Shity where Day Zero is on the calendar for July.
