  • Beryl is now responsible for 10 deaths in Texas and Louisiana. Nine of those deaths were in the Houston area. Clean-up is going to take a very long time, and there's no real timeline for full power restoration.

    85 Degrees?? More like 103 degrees. That was the temp inside of my home at 5pm yesterday because I do not have a generator! Why is the news only ever talking about Houston and Centerpoint customers? What about the rest of us that live north of Houston who have Entergy, whom is saying we will not have power until the 14th. And unlike Houston, we have no cooling centers in our area, nowhere giving ice and no food shelters. Not one Entergy truck has been sighted, so they have yet to even survey damage in any area except "The Woodlands who naturally is being restored first".
    The State, The Media and even Local officials are not saying or doing anything to help people. Where can we get ice for an ice chest so we can have sandwiches and cool drinks while we camp outside and wait a week to only be told it will be another week before power is restored. Where can we get tarps to cover the areas of roof that were blown off? In previous Hurricanes counties would give exact Locations for people to go to get ice, tarps, water, food etc.

      @@smas3256Depends of their quality and location.
      Solar panels can still become damaged from hurricanes.
      However I give you a bit of credit since some more expensive ones can do a much better job at resistance. You would also need a sturdy roof, or a good field to plop them in.
      If anything. Generators that utilized solar to charge would be a great back up. Maybe kinda pricey but better overall since you would have to install panels that might get ripped away if you can’t afford the best quality.
      I’d rather the generator.

    It seems when a hurricane hits Texas or Louisiana they have the potential to get hit pretty hard regardless of the hurricane's category strength because there is a good chance the hurricane is going to go curve inland and cover a wide spread area of sever weather for that state as the storm moves and fades off into the Midwest going north eastward .
    Why did the officials not make arrangements, plans and preparations sooner for any recovery efforts that may have been left behind in it's wake?
    It is better to be prepared and have not much happen giving you a chance to save those plans for next time, than finding yourself completely unprepared for a disaster.
