In my 70 years, this was simultaneously the mildest hurricane ever, and (according to the electric company) did the most damage to the electrical system in history. Even cable TV, Internet, and Ma Bell were down. There is only six inches of soil on top of thick clay; all the tree roots go sideways - not down. They just can't take strong winds. If you drive down the streets, about every third block has a tree pushed over, not broken, with intact SHALLOW roots showing. They take the power-lines with them. That said, WE KNOW THIS, and I do not understand the scatter-shot system of who keeps power, and who gets it back first. Drive along FM 1960 near Eldridge, or Hwy 249 near Spring-Cypress Road (to name just two). One corner, or one side of a street will have power, but not the others. Our across-the-street neighbors in our sub-division always get power two days before we do!

Centerpoint in the last 10 to 15 20 years has neglected our grid system and they have let it go to hell. Centerpoint is just another money hungry company that wants a bunch of money but they don’t do anything to keep up the grid. That’s why we lose power all the time the CEO of Centerpoint needs to be fired.

The reason the trees roots are like that is because they were berlapped. It prevents trees from developing a proper taproot, and they become extremely sceptible to falling over.

We’re on Day 6 without power & no text updates from CenterPoint since Thursday. Even then, the texts only said they were assessing to give an expected date of return of power. We’re in the teal-colored group on the “updated” map with no expected restoration date (and currently the restoration dates go out as far as July 19th.) This is the same as the previous storm - always in the last restored group. 😢

When I asked about it I was told it was an automated system. Now why would an automated system be on if they were in hurricane mode? No they didn't prepare. What are we told when preparing? Always prepare for a cat above what os predicted. The predictions were all over the place but most agreed a cat one maybe 2.

After 6.7 BILLION in profits they failed to improve the infrastructure, they even failed to do basic maintenance such as replace old poles, transformers and other basic items, tree trimming and more. Now they are applying for federal dollars to do necessary upgrades, despite record profits and failing to due their job. They also failed to prepare properly for a Cat 1 (with possibility to become Cat 2) that they new was coming all week. They should be prepared for a major hurricane, obviously they weren’t. Thankfully I’ve never lived where the power companies weren’t held accountable for basic maintenance. The burden is on Central Point.

This is a Super Starbucks with 9 employees. I counted 14 cars in the drivethru at once. We sat inside with excellent AC charging 6 devices for a couple of hours on Friday and Saturday at 6am. This means that even one of the busiest Starbucks in Houston didn't open for *4 days* due to power loss from Beryl. Still without wifi. There were 8 utility trucks parked on the tiny street next to our house. Many men in hardhats and orange vests. I waved and smiled. They waved back with serious looks on their faces. 10 minutes later, our power was on. Still waiting on wifi to come back in the heart of the Westchase district, one of the busiest areas of Houston.

Looking more and more like a scandal of huge proportions. Center Point Energy Inc is a privet company owned by Utility Holding LLC. Yesterday the Nordic Group LLC purchase stocks in Center Point Energy Inc. Also five days ago Allspring Global Investment Holding LLC up their stock stakes in Center Point Energy Inc. It should be noted that these LLC are incorporated out of Delaware, unverified; these companies my be foreign entities. There was a similar problem with electric power outages in 2021. Why has the Texas governor not directed the state's Attorney General to investigate the above entities? The Texas Legislators has a duty to hold hearings to determine whether public utilities held by corporations exploit and possibly hold the constituents in profits over services.

Greg Abbott and Trump should go to Houston and "lovingly" toss ice cubes at the people. But with the impending elimination of the administrative state, even that GOP "compassionate" strategy with soon come to an end. Good luck with your future, Texas!

I think politicians and news media should be charged with disturbing the piece and trying to rile up a mob. This is ridiculous that y’all are not being patient and allowing this company to do what they can to solve the problem you know and I know they are feeling the pressure and they are working towards it so stop making it worse.

People at 8535 Winkler Dr still have no power manager keeping in the dark without letting tendents know the truth about all that's happening about light fix they need to care of! Not having qualified electrical personnel to fix what's needs to be fix! Total mess going on with management out here, doesn't answer phone calls for any tendents! Trying to help one another with this heat! Tendents have had about Enough with this management!

From what I heard on the news on the outage map new colors, and they are calling my color “teal” which is the worse color to have. It’s say for “teal” there are NO dates when you will have power!

A lawsuit needs to happen because this is the craziest thing I have ever seen and experienced being here and we have been without power for 4 days feels like 4 years. And I'm from the Caribbean and we have a better planning system than this (depending on which island). This is wild and for them to say by Sunday they will have 80% of customers back online is even Wilder. The only way to get them to budge is if everyone sues them. One massive lawsuit by the 2 nearly 3 millions that have been without power, including the ones who have died by trees, heat and drowning. Seems to be the way of how America or Texas work, not forgetting guns seems to be a big talk here more than common sense.

My area didn't have power for two weeks after Ike. We got our power back 2 days after Beryl. I guess it's other people's turn to wait longer.

Blame Greg Abbott and Dan Patrick! It is ultimately up to them to fix this mess, but they won't on vacation. That should tell you how much they care. They put the blame on others. Keep voting for them and nothing will change!
