We get about 2 to 3 snow days a year at work.  I was absolutely baffled that this was a thing until I showed up one day and was the only vehicle in the parking lot.  We have a Weather Hotline and everything.

anybody else have a boss that expects you to be at work no matter the conditions?  cause my boss is like that.  doesn't matter if there is 12 feet of snow and the president comes on tv and tells everybody to stay home.

you guys in school should really enjoy times like this, because the real world kinda blows in regards to snow days.   :dubious:

Praise be . . . the secret gov't weather modification people didn't fire up HAARP and divert the storm away from the Drought Stricken Kansas Plains.   Hopefully they'll hold off on their weather mods for the central/SW US for awhile so that area can get some moisture.

I hope (and think?) the only part you aren't kidding about is the part where it would be good for the central/SW US to get some moisture.

you will be fighting everyone else that was delayed to get out on the next flights and they aren't going to bump anyone already booked on those flights. pro-tip: the second the flight is cancelled don't go stand in the line. call the phone number of the airline and talk to them and they will rebook you.

Issuing a Winter Death Storm Warning. Signs are pointing more and more that most of northern Kansas will see a foot + of snow. Been a while since the last time some of these places have seen that much snow.

Winter Death Storm Arthur Brown is going to sack most of Kansas and Nebraska and tea bag us for good measure.

with the 12z models I am questioning how much snow we will get in MHK. May stay way west. Doubting now if we will see 12 inches of snow like I said this morning.

But it is the people that have pushed for these long range forecasts. Anything 3 days out or more can be a crap shoot. 3 days ago the weather system that is coming in was not even over land.

7PM - Order Domino's
8PM - TSC my ass off in the comfort of my living room while watching the game, in front of my gas fireplace.  Comfort family that we will not explode the house like JJ's, because I know they will rough ridin' go on and on about that.
10:30PM - Fist pumping ends.
11:00PM - Watch the new version of Red Dawn.  Complain about how much better the first one is to Mrs Pete.  Perhaps even get in an argument about communists or something.

The potential for best day ever is certainly there, sd. Brandon and the milf went for a drive in his mom's station wagon and he totally could have got some but ended up not for some stupid reason. Next episode is where Brenda throws a slumber party and I'm pretty sure crap gets all catty and dramatic.

Update for _FANfamily 2013 Snow Death Storm; watched Alien and Gremlins (instead of Predator) last night.

Sledding and Predator on tap for today.

That is all.

I wish I was hanging with the _Fan men today.  Did Alien scare the crap out of them?  I bet they would LOVE Alien 2.

storm, how much total for Manhattan, KS?

Looked to be 6ish when I shoveled a bit ago, but hard to tell with the wind.

Weather service thinks an additional 6 to 8 inches north of I-70.

Also just received a report that I-70 is now closed west of Salina.

12 year old saw Alien when he was 9, so no big deal. 9 year old had moments of fear.

Predator should be fun.

Was real bad between Russell and hays, we were going 20 and following random tracks for about a hour. Less than 20 ft of visibility then.

I just shoveled too.  I had 12+ in my driveway.  Also, the new driveway is big as eff.  Like 2.5x bigger than the old one.  Buying a snow blower this spring for next year.

About halfway through my driveway. Live on the end of a cul-de-sac so I've gotten extra snow that has blown in. Opened up my garage door and about a 3 foot wall of snow fell in a little bit.

Neighbor guy offered to snow blow it for $80. I took off my 4 layers of coat and fleeces, rolled up my sleeve and flexed my rock hard biceps at the guy. He said never mind looks like you've got this under control and moved on to the next house.

never will understand this strategy

I can see both sides of this.

To me it makes some sense to get some off when I can, then the last few are just basically scraping off an inch or two which goes really quick. Waiting for 8-12" seems like a lot more work to me. :dunno:

What is cadly?  Are you saying mocat is behaving like a cad (i.e., an ill-bred man, especially one who behaves in a dishonorable or irresponsible way toward women)?  If so, you're way out of line.  I'm pretty sure mocat is the opposite of an ill-bred man.  Superbly bred is more like it.  Non-cad.  Anti-cad maybe.  Basically what I'm saying is that the last thing anybody is coming at mocat about is his breeding.  It's just not a fight you're going to win.

If it forms in this area Kansas City will be in the perfect spot for a snowstorm, potentially bigger and more intense than the storm we just experienced. This would create near blizzard conditions over our viewing area with major accumulations of snow.

Winter High Ankle Sprain Storm Tyler Lockett Update.

Have no rough ridin' clue what this storm is going to do. All the models are all over the map and each one has been fairly consistent with run. So just have no way of guessing except to say, some place in Kansas or Oklahoma or Missouri  could see an additonal 10 to 12 inches of snow with 1/10 to 1/4 inch of ice Sunday night. Have fun fuckers.

No two ways about it, the next couple of days could get ugly.

For the second time in less than a week, weather forecasts are showing a major winter storm headed this way.

And, the National Weather Service adds, this storm won’t be anything like the last. Eight to 14 inches of fresh snow are predicted with this storm and possibly strong winds, creating blizzard-like conditions and drifts several feet high.

Visibility will be to near zero at times. Travel will be treacherous.

Although the storm is expected to start later Sunday evening, the brunt is expected Monday.

Wichita’s public works crews are beginning preparations short-handed for a storm that Joe Pajor, the deputy director of public works, said, "looks worse than the last one."

The end result could be restricted traffic flow through the city in the immediate wake of the storm.

Sand and salt supplies are low after last week’s record storm, Pajor said, as are the number of locations where snow can be transported off city arterials and emergency routes.

So, Pajor said, the plowing strategy for the blizzard may be different - snow plowed into the center of arterials, and traffic cut to one lane each direction.

Streets will not be treated with the city’s limited sand and salt supplies until the snow ends and plowing is under way.

"It would have been nice if we’d had a few days to recover, to do some equipment rehab," Pajor said.

Also, the weather service cautions people to consider the roofs on buildings.

“The new snowfall could exacerbate the already nearly foot totals on roofs and could be a concern to structures,” the Sunday morning NWS forecast said.

Temperatures are expected to stay almost 20 degrees below normal – with the highs in the low 30s and lows in the high teens and low 20s.


BP bought a new snow blower yesterday !   :excited:

Lezak would make Janssen crap himself just by taking his shirt off and flexing.  Then he would complete the knockout blow, a breakdown of weather forecasts for the next 90 days using the Lezak Recurring Cycle @ Weather2020.com.  Janseen would be a mess of tears covered in crap when Gary got done.

Dillons West was out of bread, cheese, eggs and most produce last wednesday night. It was hilariously small-timey how the townies prepared/reacted to the news that we were going to get a lot of snow.


"BUT THE DILLONS IS OUT OF BREAD!!!!!!"  :sdeek: :runaway: :sdeek: :runaway: :sdeek:

Good grief I don't understand this at all. Do people really not have enough food in their house to keep them fed for 24 hours? And if not, do people think they're going to die if they don't eat for 24 hours?

If I didn't have enough food for 24 hours, and options were stocking up or not eating, I would stock up.

I guess I underestimated the number of people that don't keep 24 hours worth of food in their house.

What is the goEMAW KC Metroplex consensus on Brian Busby? Stud? Pud?

He's gay, which is how I prefer my weathermen, but I prefer Lezak by a country mile to Busby.  Busby drives a convertible Jag, however...so points for that.
busby is also a member of the kc civic orchestra.  seems like a dickhead though.  who knows?

Lezak and Busby are both homosexual so its instant tie for first place in the stud competition. That said mike Thompson is kind of a boss bc it seems like he doesn't gaf. Channel 5 is the worst collection of hyperventilating psychos evaaaaar

Some girl in my office just said the National Weather Service was forecasting up to 20 inches in KC.   :horrorsurprise:

Source: No Idea, but probably like a DD (if you catch my drift!   :fatty:)



You should have said "I predict a 100% chance of you receiving (your weiner size) inches tonight." followed by this face  :fatty:

Mods, please move to the HR thread. TIA.


FWIW Lezak and every stud local weatherman has used this line at least once.
pffft, not on a female.  And neither has Ross Janssen.

So what are you trying to say?

He is saying that ross is not attracted to women.

I just sub  sriracha  for Tabasco  in  my normal  bloody  recipe  using  Worcestershire,  horse radish,  lemon  and  lime  juice,  etc.  I  think it  gives a  bit  of a  sweeter  flavor vs Tabasco.

Well, I'm not sure if we're having a serious discussion or not, but I'll post this anyway.

First off, climate change is very real.  Multiple ice ages, bla bla bla.  Man-made climate change is debatable.

The NOAA has a page dedicated to El Nino:  http://www.elnino.noaa.gov/

Basically right now conditions are "neutral," neither El Nino or La Nina.

Actually I have different spots I fish depending upon the height of the river. My best spots can only be reached when the river is low, the low water allows you to get right next to the deep channels/pools where the catfish hang out.  :D

Welp, hitting the road to Colorado in about 1 hr. Just got twitter so I can tweet updates the whole way, #donnerparty2013

I SWEAR TO FULLY GROWN LONG HAIRED JESUS IN A ROBE, IF THERE IS ANOTHER SNOWSTORM WHEN I HEAD OUT TO COLORADO IN ONE WEEK I WILL LOSE IT.

Last year we drove right through the storm in the middle of the night and I was scared shitless sitting in the backseat. Whiteout conditions going 15 MPH on I-70 from Hays to Colby following faint tire tracks in the snow. We made it through KS and crashed at some hotel in Burlington before they closed I-70 tho.

Then on the way back there was another dumbass storm when we were getting in town.  :shakesfist:

Hit some black ice on the 435 access road to the nall/roe exits on the way home. Was going about 40 and would just slide when I hit the brakes, there were a couple of cars about 30 yards in front of me that I was convinced I would slide into, one was in the process of fishtailing. Resisted the urge to jam on the brakes like an idiot, kept moving forward and planned to rub into the guard rail if need be...Ended up being able to brake in time but wow, WHAT A RUSH.

Just received word from snowremovalcat, friend of Limestone and mine.  He company thinks that everywhere in KC is guaranteed to get 8", with another inch on Wednesday.   They pay for some pretty pricey forecast subscription services, and typically end up being more accurate than the TV guys.

Supposed to start around 4 am in west KC, moving east.  Will probably cancel KC area schools on both Tuesday and Wednesday.

It's picked up a bit in KC, but not too much more than it was at around 8am, and we have maybe an inch down.  It's going to have to pick up speed or we aren't going to hit the 8" by 5pm (when they said it would taper off).

Based on the current rate of snow, I am predicting 4" by 5pm in KC, who knows after that.

That's exactly what I'm doing.  Also saw a guy fall down twice walking his dog outside.  Snow plows were screwing up my entertainment but they've been gone quite a while.  When the sun goes down should be lots of fun to be had.  PS:  Guinness Draught is amazing.

He's even more :opcat: now that you've left...took him the handle that I broke last year and he said that the house to the east of the entrance had lights professionally hung that made it the "jew house" of the neighborhood since they apparently have too much money to hang them by themselves.

The first few games you play your kids, don't play very well at all. Win by 21-18 type scores. Then, after about 10 games like that, let one of them get out to a 17-5 lead and bet them some sort of chores or something that they hate. Then just SMASH THEIR FACES! Color of Money type stuff, but with ping pong.

Also, wear some dorky black nerd glasses when you do this and take pics.

I don't think you are remembering correctly. The first game was rather close but I ended up winning it. Second game I think you won in a close match. Third game I destroyed you and you begged for a best of 5.  I agreed and whipped some ass for a few more games.

Quote
As you can see, we have a pretty large 6 to 10 inch snowfall forecast for the KC metro area. There will likely be a 50 mile wide band, or even tighter, perhaps a 25 mile wide band that ends up with the highest totals that could approach a foot or more. It is very rare for our area to have significant snow on radar and also have temperatures in the single digits. This may happen early Sunday morning which would increase the accumulations.

So what happened? Were we really wrong in the forecast?  We should look into this a bit deeper and I am going to do this in tomorrow’s blog. I first would like to see how this last band of snow moves through and how much we will get. It almost baffles the meteorological mind that sleet has continued to fall as of 10 AM with temperatures this cold.  I will hold off on the explanation and discussion until tomorrow morning.

I'm in an outdoor wedding on Saturday.  :angry:

The eff?

There is a contingency plan to be indoors, but as of last night the groom said it was 50/50 that we'd still be outside. In their defense, the last 4 years the high on Nov. 15 has been 62, 56, 56, 57.

Oh, well then it was totally reasonable to schedule an outdoor wedding on November 15th.

This is true. However, her fiance's dad gave her some old school car for the wedding. It was all over Facebook this morning. I guess they're making up for it in other areas. So weird. Her fiance is a goober FWIW.

Last night, in Wichita, on the way home from work, I had some asshat drive up in the right hand turn lane beside me at a red light in whiteout condition.  This guy proceeded to try to zip around my 4wd jeep through the intersection in some little sedan and skidded out of control in the process... no one would try that move on a calm day and this guy figures the middle of a whiteout is a good time to try it?  The first couple snows of the season always turn everyone into F'n morons trying to drive.

It's been quite a storm to forecast...that's for sure! While roads were plenty slick and ice caused power outages in east central KS, in the end we'll end up with a "BEST CASE SCENARIO" of sorts. This is good news as most of the weather models were forecasting more than a foot of snow for parts of the area (some as much as 18"!). Even while we at the NWS were forecasting much lower than those models, a shift in the storm track and more dry air in the upper levels really ate up the snow totals. It's interesting how such small details can make such a huge difference...especially with snow!

Pro tip:  If you're going to the Liberty Bowl, be careful of Pig Aggie perverts.  They'll approach our sweet young ladies and say something like "tickle your ass with a feather?", but when asked to repeat what they just said, they respond with "We're in for more nasty weather!".  :D

As someone currently living in DC, how worried/how much prep should I be doing? Call it the Kansas in me, but I don't feel very panicky. I live on the fourth flour of a very new building, so I am guessing the power wont go out. My car is also parked in an underground garage, so I don't have to worry about it getting buried.

We have beer, wine, and liquor. I might need to make a mixers run tonight. Good call. Otherwise, unless the power goes out, we are set for two days of not being able to get around. If the power goes out we have bottled water, stuff to make sandwiches, chips, annnd I think some cookies.

My guess is DC is not very well equipped to handle ~30" of snow, so it's more likely that you'll be snowed in for longer than 2 days  :th_twocents:

do you have your provisions ready? Like booze and stuff?

We have beer, wine, and liquor. I might need to make a mixers run tonight. Good call. Otherwise, unless the power goes out, we are set for two days of not being able to get around. If the power goes out we have bottled water, stuff to make sandwiches, chips, annnd I think some cookies.
even if your building is new power and cables lines on poles could be an issue so gas up the car.  I enjoyed these posts from Skinny Benny RE:Disaster preparedness

Bring every laptop you can find, charge batteries to 100%, leave them off and fully charged until the power goes out. Then turn on, dim screen to as dim as it goes, and then LOL with buds at movies. Change DVD from compy to compy every now and then so nobody's batt gets drained all the way.

Charge phones in your fully gassed up car and BBS your ever-loving brains out.

Lezak and his team set up proper expectations.  He foretasted a big ass storm in the area months ago.  Within the last week and before it developed they talked about how it would take one of two courses.  Northern course (which it took), trace amounts of snow in KC.  Southern course maybe up to 4" but KC still wouldn't be in the meat of the storm.  Always listen to Gary....he is usually spot on.

I'll give them a break on this one too. They were saying starting last Thursday that there were 2 possible tracks and its following the more northerly one that they projected that it might. The images show that the NWS track shifted north as the storm came closer, but they were fair with their forecast.

Now watch, this thing will probably shift back south and we'll get 15 inches or something.

This year the forecasters have really missed on several "big" storm forecasts.

But they've sure driven lots of viewers and page clicks!

Knock it off Satan aren't there a ton of snow days allotted for this? It's Friday the 13th with a national newsworthy massive ice blizzard coming in. You must have walked to school barefoot in the snow uphill both ways with my grandpa

really i remember last yr when i took my son home 30 mins early because they were calling for severe thunderstorms my son was given 2- 1 hour detentions saying this was not an excused absent that my child is to be in school if school had not been canceled by usd 445.

As a teacher, I hate that the parents are told we having school, but if you want keep your kids at home. That just means half-filled classrooms causing a whole different set of problems.

I live in Minneapolis and the shake shack at the mall ALSO sucks. For the life of me I’ll never get the hype of going to rough ridin' chain burger joints (in n’ out, whataburger I’m looking at you too).

Little pleasures of life = a filet mignon and a glass of scotch.

Those burger joints are just burgers. Good, but nothing to rave about.

But I agree with you that Minneapolis is WAY overrated.

When should I drip faucets? Is opening the cabinets around the pipes enough? There is a supply line for an upstairs shower that goes through an outside wall  that I'm a bit worried about.

DFW facing 8 days of the most significant winter weather it has seen since the Super Bowl at Jerryworld 10 years ago.  4+ days without getting above freezing and mix in some winter precip and baby we got a delicious winter smoothie.  My body is ready.

As a selfish note, this is a potential huge revenue driver for my pool business.  Pools do not get winterized here for the most part.  “Freeze protection” is a thermostat kicking pumps on to make sure they are circulating water to prevent freezing and the damage that occurs when that happens.

For the most part, freeze protection generally kicks on about 10 times a year in the middle of the night or day for a handful of hours.  But 4+ days straight, all I am seeing is $$$.

Any sort of leak at the equipment pad already is going to cause problems as equipment can freeze from the outside inward at these temps for this duration, even while running.  Mix in potentially some winter precip and power outages and all hell can break lose.  A really cold hell, but still.

Another 8-12 inches of snow in Chicago tomorrow. At this point it’s going to be 3-4 feet since late January without a significant melt

He built the laundry room literally on the back deck, so these pipes just have some batt insulation between them and the outside world. I don't know if you'd want to put these in the wall.

Not an issue. Seal the sleeve with tape when you're done. You want to keep air from moving across the pipe.

Weird, I had heard rolling blackouts were a Texas issue.  Guess we have company.
Our power co has plenty of juice but says we’re part of some big regional multi state thing and may have to do blackouts to support you downgrades who can’t handle the cold. So thanks a lot.

Is the Midwest in for some pretty nasty floods when we finally start thawing out? 

I've done v little research, but i don't think the snowpack has been that ridiculous this year. As long as it doesn't get extremely warm quickly, i think it will be an average year. 

Not much snow in the Dakotas.

Apparently Kansas is having blackouts because Kansas.

Apples and oranges in scale.

And in case anyone was wondering, KY and KS are connected, all of the Eastern US, and a ton of Canada connected together.

And all of Western US connected together.

Not connected: Eastern US, Western US, and Texas,

Hence why Texas has 4 mill out, KS after dealing with this for 2 weeks decides "well we'll occasionally have outages every so often and not for everyone and only for like 3 hours a day for some people" Texas after it's exhausted all it's resources after 2 days: welp that's it isn't it but the power for emergency sources". That's the difference. That and natural gas for everyone (lol) is just poof, CO2 right now. And here I was told fossil fuels were the reliable ones.

Resiliency and grid reliability comes in numbers (for the most part).

And I was not trying to pick on you obv, you can't do anything about it, it's just really funny (to me) to have "we can do this on our own we're our own goddamn country" Texas brought to it's knees over a little cold in 48 hours time.

And that's with all the oil a Texan can shake at. At least it took KS 2 weeks to succumb to (occasionally) having to have (some) people go out (for 30-60 minutes). And most of that succumbing is due to Texas falling down at it's fat face sucking all the natural gas for itself as it huddles for warmth around the burnt out embers of it's pride cause it can't handle it.

Curious do you know if the natty gas issues are related to equipment failures or it's just that cold and the equipment doesn't get to the same pressures and you get less mass flow or residential heating is using that much more (or all of it)?

In a nutshell: 1/3 of the country was hit with cold it's not used to, all more or less at the same time, most heat comes from gas, not the grid, so either you shut off power plants that run off natural gas, or shut off natural gases to houses, one is way easier to do...

Why choose which one? You can't do rolling blackouts with NG. Much easier to flip the electrical supply. If ng drops, it doesn't get sent down the pipe until every home supply is pressure tested individually. Nightmare scenario if powerplants tripped the ng supply.

I am glad you talked about apples & oranges in scale.  It is a great point.

Roughly the same number as or more people were out of power in Texas than the entire population of Kansas.  Maybe that brings to light the scale difference in how many people the Texas grid is providing power too.  To go even further, it looks like ERCOT services most likely twice as many people as SPP.

The infrastructure and houses are not built with this cold of weather in consideration.  Why?  Because historically there is not a need for it.  So when this type of event happens, there becomes way more demand per person/household than our northern counterparts.

This is in no way a post white-knighting ERCOT and it is becoming pretty apparent as this event unfolds they are a mumped ip group.  Several of its board members do not even live in Texas.  So this does not appear to be a Texas only mindset as has been implied heavily.  The chair and vice-chair live in Michigan and Germany so this is apparently not Texas only thinking.

For the record, going off of the little information that is available on their actions at this point, I hope that ERCOT is severely overhauled or even dismantled after the investigation into this event.

But to say you are comparing apples to apples in referring to the blackout in Kansas and Texas is just as disingenuous on your end.

For a little more context, the heating design day temperature in Kansas City is -1, in San Antonio it’s 26, Dallas 17.  Equipment generally has some safety built in, so you can go below that for a little while, but at some point you won’t be able to keep up. Also, the building codes require less insulation in southern climates because you don’t have the extreme cold temperatures, so houses can lose heat more quickly when they get outside the bounds of the design conditions. These relative temperatures are more important than absolutes when considering the impact on the infrastructure as a whole.

Thank you, we are.  We had 4 x 1 hour power outages, 2 x 5 hour, 1 x 12 hour.  Power was only on for 1-2 hours between each of those instances.   We have had power back on for 18 hours now without interruption which is fantastic.

Fortunately we converted our gas fireplace to wood when we bought our house 7 years ago so our tv room, adjacent to kitchen, has been manageable through the blackouts so long as I fueled it every 30 minutes.  That made for some major sleep deprivation for me but kept my wife and boy warm and sleeping.  We also have a gas wall heater in our bathroom which helped.

My brother and parents in the Hill Country are not as lucky.  They have been without power for 4 & 3 days.  Not ERCOT related.  Ice storm and they just received another round of ice overnight.

Not really too keen on having an LP tank on what is already a smallish lot, even if underground.  Getting it filled in North Texas can also be problematic as we are more likely to see severe ice events than we are snow.  Compound that with not having the ability to clear roads well here and that is a red flag.  Lots of the surrounding area lost their heating ability as LP supplies disappeared overnight on the first day of this event.

I guess there could be worse things than keeping a dozen 20lb tanks around just in case.  But if I could fill up containers of gas before an event and don’t wnd up needing them, at least I could offload them into my vehicles at first opportunity.

For a little more context, the heating design day temperature in Kansas City is -1, in San Antonio it’s 26, Dallas 17.  Equipment generally has some safety built in, so you can go below that for a little while, but at some point you won’t be able to keep up. Also, the building codes require less insulation in southern climates because you don’t have the extreme cold temperatures, so houses can lose heat more quickly when they get outside the bounds of the design conditions. These relative temperatures are more important than absolutes when considering the impact on the infrastructure as a whole.

i assume those temps are from the commercial building code? do they apply to industrial buildings?
Those are design conditions for HVAC equipment, which would apply to the HVAC in an industrial setting, but I don’t know what other equipment would be designed for.

Sorry if I missed it, but would "being part of the federal system" (sorry if this is phrased incorrectly) have done anything to help prevent Texas' situation?  I see people referencing that, but I'm unclear how that figures into it exactly.

My understanding is the biggest failure is/was energy providers failing to act on recommendations to better weatherproof power facilities after the last major blackout event 10 years ago.  Because that was all it was, a recommendation without any weight behind it and the energy producers passed as it was “too costly.”

Then, ERCOT failed to order  additional available power online 2 weeks ago when the forecast became abundantly clear.  Those supplies were down for maintenance but could have been brought up in time.  Their refusal to respond to why it was not done has led to mass speculation of a cash grab for certain groups.

For the most part, sensors freezing leading to generator failure and an unknown ability/desire to ramp back up production, which was possible, to meet a very clear increased demand.

And to be clear, the generator failures occurred across all generator fields.  Nuclear, coal, natural gas, and wind turbine.

So if being part of federal oversight could have insured that weatherized recommendations were met as well as ensured forecasted power demands were met, it could have made a huge difference.

But I am not an expert in the field so I have no idea.

I have never looked to Rick Perry for opinions or advice and am not about to start now.

But no, I would rather have power if possible.  Dying is pretty much my last resort in all situations.  I am not sure which occasions I would chose dying over do do not ask as they will have to be considered on a case by case scenario.

(WARNING: this is something I read but it's also a subject I have no clue on so it might be wrong) Federal regulation incentives the energy producers toward maintenance by allowing them to recoup profit at 1:1 for money spent on maintenance. This means higher energy prices. Texas said eff the feds we want low prices and cut maintenance because it costs money. Obviously that will eventually come back to bite you in the ass.  Who knows how much this is to blame, as it seems like there are a myriad of failures all over.

I agree that this event is large enough that Texas will probably have to change, it will be interesting to see how.

Nothing will change in Texas.

It will but it will be slow.  Despite some people claiming the contrary, the only insulation for outages in this event were either proximity to critical infrastructure and/or hospitals or having a generator.  Some of the richest zip codes in the metroplex were without power for greater than 50% of the time and shouldered a huge load of the energy bleed off.

Texas is not the same Texas it was 10 years ago.  More influx of out-of-staters is slowly changing the atmosphere.  Those people losing power are not the same crop of people as before.  These neighborhoods are now full of transplants whose politics align differently.  Doing without power in order for cronies to make a buck is no longer in the interest of people as the neighborhoods are now getting filled with CEOs and executives whose businesses have relocated for the business climate.

Most of rural Texas has been unaffected by the rolling blackouts as well.   My inlaws live an hour outside of Dallas and have not lost power yet. 

We live in a suburb of Dallas and here are our outages:

We didn't have electricity for 30+ hours, from early Monday morning to yesterday afternoon. It got down into the 40's inside the house. Some people in my zip *still* without power. Lucky us, as of this morning we don't have water, due to some combination of burst mains and/or electricity shut off at pump stations.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/January%E2%80%93February_2019_North_American_cold_wave (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/January%E2%80%93February_2019_North_American_cold_wave)

Iowa had record breaking temps in 2019.


Not enough data yet when the study was done in 2001, but from what I read:  "The general assumption is that reduced snow cover and sea ice reflect less sunlight and therefore evaporation and transpiration increases, which in turn alters the pressure and temperature gradient of the polar vortex, causing it to weaken or collapse."

I understand the above quote as forced climate has altered the polar environments which can cause the giant ball of cold to collapse and create a flower petal affect where we get this dip of cold air.  This is not uncommon (polar vortex) but was pretty rough ridin' intense and scientists predict it will continue to occur as the north pole continues to melt.

Ast getting all huffy about Texas having four million people without power overnight and comparing it to the great plains doing 20-60 minute pauses is very texasy

Not huffy at all.  I was told Texas was having blackouts because Texas.

Apparently Kansas is having blackouts because Kansas.

Apples and oranges in scale.

And in case anyone was wondering, KY and KS are connected, all of the Eastern US, and a ton of Canada connected together.

And all of Western US connected together.

Not connected: Eastern US, Western US, and Texas,

Hence why Texas has 4 mill out, KS after dealing with this for 2 weeks decides "well we'll occasionally have outages every so often and not for everyone and only for like 3 hours a day for some people" Texas after it's exhausted all it's resources after 2 days: welp that's it isn't it but the power for emergency sources". That's the difference. That and natural gas for everyone (lol) is just poof, CO2 right now. And here I was told fossil fuels were the reliable ones.

Resiliency and grid reliability comes in numbers (for the most part).

And I was not trying to pick on you obv, you can't do anything about it, it's just really funny (to me) to have "we can do this on our own we're our own goddamn country" Texas brought to it's knees over a little cold in 48 hours time.

And that's with all the oil a Texan can shake at. At least it took KS 2 weeks to succumb to (occasionally) having to have (some) people go out (for 30-60 minutes). And most of that succumbing is due to Texas falling down at it's fat face sucking all the natural gas for itself as it huddles for warmth around the burnt out embers of it's pride cause it can't handle it.

I am glad you talked about apples & oranges in scale.  It is a great point.

Roughly the same number as or more people were out of power in Texas than the entire population of Kansas.  Maybe that brings to light the scale difference in how many people the Texas grid is providing power too.  To go even further, it looks like ERCOT services most likely twice as many people as SPP.

The infrastructure and houses are not built with this cold of weather in consideration.  Why?  Because historically there is not a need for it.  So when this type of event happens, there becomes way more demand per person/household than our northern counterparts.

This is in no way a post white-knighting ERCOT and it is becoming pretty apparent as this event unfolds they are a mumped ip group.  Several of its board members do not even live in Texas.  So this does not appear to be a Texas only mindset as has been implied heavily.  The chair and vice-chair live in Michigan and Germany so this is apparently not Texas only thinking.

For the record, going off of the little information that is available on their actions at this point, I hope that ERCOT is severely overhauled or even dismantled after the investigation into this event.


But to say you are comparing apples to apples in referring to the blackout in Kansas and Texas is just as disingenuous on your end.

All of your post is fair, the bold is really the crux of my issues of the "Texas being Texas." They decided to create their own grid, on their own, and play by their own rules. It is well and good, but, and as unfortunate as you all have to live with said consequences, you are seeing that. I get CEOs and others can live wherever to do whatever, but Texas still decided to go in it alone. And you are right, they should be investigated and dismantled for thinking they knew what they were doing. After all, it birthed the ability for companies like Enron to go around and selectively blackout people because of economics, instead of thinking of the welfare of their compatriots.

And I was not trying to pick on you obv, you can't do anything about it, it's just really funny (to me) to have "we can do this on our own we're our own goddamn country" Texas brought to it's knees over a little cold in 48 hours time.

And that's with all the oil a Texan can shake at. At least it took KS 2 weeks to succumb to (occasionally) having to have (some) people go out (for 30-60 minutes). And most of that succumbing is due to Texas falling down at it's fat face sucking all the natural gas for itself as it huddles for warmth around the burnt out embers of it's pride cause it can't handle it.

I am glad you talked about apples & oranges in scale.  It is a great point.

Roughly the same number as or more people were out of power in Texas than the entire population of Kansas.  Maybe that brings to light the scale difference in how many people the Texas grid is providing power too.  To go even further, it looks like ERCOT services most likely twice as many people as SPP.

The infrastructure and houses are not built with this cold of weather in consideration.  Why?  Because historically there is not a need for it.  So when this type of event happens, there becomes way more demand per person/household than our northern counterparts.

This is in no way a post white-knighting ERCOT and it is becoming pretty apparent as this event unfolds they are a mumped ip group.  Several of its board members do not even live in Texas.  So this does not appear to be a Texas only mindset as has been implied heavily.  The chair and vice-chair live in Michigan and Germany so this is apparently not Texas only thinking.

For the record, going off of the little information that is available on their actions at this point, I hope that ERCOT is severely overhauled or even dismantled after the investigation into this event.


But to say you are comparing apples to apples in referring to the blackout in Kansas and Texas is just as disingenuous on your end.

All of your post is fair, the bold is really the crux of my issues of the "Texas being Texas." They decided to create their own grid, on their own, and play by their own rules. It is well and good, but, and as unfortunate as you all have to live with said consequences, you are seeing that. I get CEOs and others can live wherever to do whatever, but Texas still decided to go in it alone. And you are right, they should be investigated and dismantled for thinking they knew what they were doing. After all, it birthed the ability for companies like Enron to go around and selectively blackout people because of economics, instead of thinking of the welfare of their compatriots.

Where did Texas touch you?  Show it to us on a doll.  We won’t tell.
Uhhhh ast not sure about that post

Wow, we hating on South Park now too?  I am fine with the post.  It is probably pretty much inline with kicking people while they are down about a situation that they pretty much have no control over.

What's the lowdown on crazy rate hikes, I guess more specific to TX? Do they (power provider you sign a contract with) keep most of that or is it shoveled out to another provider due to a contract they have and are using to get ya the juice?

My understanding is that sometime Tuesday, ERCOT announced that not only is there going to be a price increase due to demand, but also they are going to go back in time and raise the price for past consumption that they are saying led to a lack of supply for this event.  So basically Texas consumers are going to get double screwed, despite not being able to have constant power.

On the one hand, this is absolutely ridiculous.  I wish I could back invoice my customers for work I already provided at times when I get super swamped at work and do not have time to take on additional work.

On the other hand, I hope they actually do it.  It could be the thing that gets a majority of Texans angry enough to actually make sure lasting change comes from this situation.

Those are indeed wholesale prices, and most customers are on fixed rate contracts that won't see immediate large jumps.

However, there is at least one company in TX that charges individual consumers a flat fee to get access to wholesale electricity prices. That company began telling individuals to find another provider last week. This week, bills for their customers were in the several hundreds to a few thousand dollars per day.

Not just texas that has some need of investigation or regulation.  I saw a post from McLouth, KS describing how their gas broker, Kansas Municipal Gas Association (MKGA) purchases stored gas for McLouth as well as something like 48 other gas companies, normally has an $8-$9MM annual budget.  This past Sat-Tues, they spent $30MM alone due to the fact that the gas wholesale market is unregulated with no cap.  They said that last monday, gas was $3/MMBtu, and as of yesterday, it was $622/MMBtu.

Agco shut down its facility today because it can't afford what its gas bill will be to operate. Workers are furloughed with no pay so gas brokers can continue to line their pockets. This country is broken.


Edit: workers are going to get back pay. Their union must have a ton of leverage.

Things like gas supply to entire gas companies is accomplished with pipelines.  This is basically a monopoly.  Govts have been regulating price increases of necessary monopolies for a long time.

You can sign up online but they also send out door to door guys as well.

In Dallas you can choose between like 100 different power companies, but I’m not sure why. There is only one entity that manages the delivery of electricity to households (Oncor) and apparently whether YOUR power company is generating electricity is irrelevant to whether your home gets power when overall demand exceeds supply. It only seems to affect how much you pay (and who you pay).

dunno if tx has the same system, but i believe (not 100% sure) that ca or at least parts of ca have it regulated so that multiple companies can use the same lines to service retail customers.  like there's one line to a house (obviously) and the line belongs to a company, but to foster competition, supposedly to the benefit of the retail customer, there might be a dozen energy providers that could use that line to sell you energy (paying a small fee to the owner of the line).

and yeah, obviously the electricity is all the same so it's just like, the companies dump a certain amount into the grid, and presumably they can bill retail customers for some of that, if they have them, and if they don't they have to take wholesale prices.

Ast getting all huffy about Texas having four million people without power overnight and comparing it to the great plains doing 20-60 minute pauses is very texasy

Not huffy at all.  I was told Texas was having blackouts because Texas.

Apparently Kansas is having blackouts because Kansas.

Apples and oranges in scale.

And in case anyone was wondering, KY and KS are connected, all of the Eastern US, and a ton of Canada connected together.

And all of Western US connected together.

Not connected: Eastern US, Western US, and Texas,

Hence why Texas has 4 mill out, KS after dealing with this for 2 weeks decides "well we'll occasionally have outages every so often and not for everyone and only for like 3 hours a day for some people" Texas after it's exhausted all it's resources after 2 days: welp that's it isn't it but the power for emergency sources". That's the difference. That and natural gas for everyone (lol) is just poof, CO2 right now. And here I was told fossil fuels were the reliable ones.

That makes sense, sys. So they’re essentially like, here’s how much power we can provide, these houses wanna pay us X for it, and we’ll take the going rate for the rest. In that case not a bad system IMO.

I remember a professor talking about how you could have solar panels and actually generate enough electricity to sell some back, so that is making more sense to me now too.

Kicking “Texas” while it is down feels really a lot like kicking its residents while it is down.  Event if we do jot agree with the whole “Texas” mindset.

Sorry I got sideways but the whole conversation started when I was cold and my nerves were quite literally raw while trying to ratio firewood by candlelight without electricity while keeping my wife and baby warm with -15 windchills in a house not built for winter.

The mistake in this case was a colossal one, but the solution seems incredibly simple. Texas just needs to enact and actually enforce regulations that require power producers to take precautions far beyond what might seem necessary (kind of like making sure an elevator can handle 4000 pounds and then saying the max is 2000 or something).

It’s not being on its own grid that caused the problem here (although obviously being on a larger grid would have helped). It’s the fact that each producer was pretty much left to their best judgment as far as what was needed to survive harsh conditions, and (as private businesses tend to do) many balanced preparedness with profit.

Wow, we hating on South Park now too?  I am fine with the post.  It is probably pretty much inline with kicking people while they are down about a situation that they pretty much have no control over.

I really think you're confusing my disdain with Texas with anything having to do with you. I'm kicking the idea of Texas down, not you. We are literally having a meeting how Texas totally deemphasized the need to "be online" with making money in my company right now. Yes, you have nothing to do it, and you are learning about how behind the times your state is in the worst ways, lash out at me all you want. Nature just messed with Texas and won in 48 hours.

I guess I did forget my Aleksandr Solzhenitsyn, for "How can you expect a man who's warm to understand one who's cold?"

My deepest apologies but it is really hard to separate your disdain with Texas from what I have and am experiencing at this moment.  Maybe it is a timing issue.  Maybe it is full tone can not be determined over the internet issue.

Kicking “Texas” while it is down feels really a lot like kicking its residents while it is down.  Event if we do jot agree with the whole “Texas” mindset.

Sorry I got sideways but the whole conversation started when I was cold and my nerves were quite literally raw while trying to ratio firewood by candlelight without electricity while keeping my wife and baby warm with -15 windchills in a house not built for winter.

Have a good day and sorry for the confusion.

It's all good, I do apologize it came off that way, I have gone through 2 Canadian winters, experience -40F on a regular basis, and have my own house experience a week long outage during a winter storm in 2019, it truly sucks. It just upsets me to see a system that never has to be that way, and everywhere else plays by a stringent set of rules and Texas just went around acting like they didn't need to, and had 10 years to fix things too. It's shitty, really shitty.

That, and knowing due to their rule machinations created companies like Enron running around turning people's power off "for fun" back in the day, and then their subsequent collapse destroyed so many people's livelihoods and saving because of it. The system created a horrible monster and you and so many people have to live in this cold.

Ast getting all huffy about Texas having four million people without power overnight and comparing it to the great plains doing 20-60 minute pauses is very texasy

Not huffy at all.  I was told Texas was having blackouts because Texas.

Apparently Kansas is having blackouts because Kansas.

Apples and oranges in scale.

And in case anyone was wondering, KY and KS are connected, all of the Eastern US, and a ton of Canada connected together.

And all of Western US connected together.

Not connected: Eastern US, Western US, and Texas,

Hence why Texas has 4 mill out, KS after dealing with this for 2 weeks decides "well we'll occasionally have outages every so often and not for everyone and only for like 3 hours a day for some people" Texas after it's exhausted all it's resources after 2 days: welp that's it isn't it but the power for emergency sources". That's the difference. That and natural gas for everyone (lol) is just poof, CO2 right now. And here I was told fossil fuels were the reliable ones.

Resiliency and grid reliability comes in numbers (for the most part).

And I was not trying to pick on you obv, you can't do anything about it, it's just really funny (to me) to have "we can do this on our own we're our own goddamn country" Texas brought to it's knees over a little cold in 48 hours time.

And that's with all the oil a Texan can shake at. At least it took KS 2 weeks to succumb to (occasionally) having to have (some) people go out (for 30-60 minutes). And most of that succumbing is due to Texas falling down at it's fat face sucking all the natural gas for itself as it huddles for warmth around the burnt out embers of it's pride cause it can't handle it.

I am glad you talked about apples & oranges in scale.  It is a great point.

Roughly the same number as or more people were out of power in Texas than the entire population of Kansas.  Maybe that brings to light the scale difference in how many people the Texas grid is providing power too.  To go even further, it looks like ERCOT services most likely twice as many people as SPP.

The infrastructure and houses are not built with this cold of weather in consideration.  Why?  Because historically there is not a need for it.  So when this type of event happens, there becomes way more demand per person/household than our northern counterparts.

This is in no way a post white-knighting ERCOT and it is becoming pretty apparent as this event unfolds they are a mumped ip group.  Several of its board members do not even live in Texas.  So this does not appear to be a Texas only mindset as has been implied heavily.  The chair and vice-chair live in Michigan and Germany so this is apparently not Texas only thinking.

For the record, going off of the little information that is available on their actions at this point, I hope that ERCOT is severely overhauled or even dismantled after the investigation into this event.


But to say you are comparing apples to apples in referring to the blackout in Kansas and Texas is just as disingenuous on your end.

All of your post is fair, the bold is really the crux of my issues of the "Texas being Texas." They decided to create their own grid, on their own, and play by their own rules. It is well and good, but, and as unfortunate as you all have to live with said consequences, you are seeing that. I get CEOs and others can live wherever to do whatever, but Texas still decided to go in it alone. And you are right, they should be investigated and dismantled for thinking they knew what they were doing. After all, it birthed the ability for companies like Enron to go around and selectively blackout people because of economics, instead of thinking of the welfare of their compatriots.

Where did Texas touch you?  Show it to us on a doll.  We won’t tell.

I guess I did forget my Aleksandr Solzhenitsyn, for "How can you expect a man who's warm to understand one who's cold?"
The mistake in this case was a colossal one, but the solution seems incredibly simple. Texas just needs to enact and actually enforce regulations that require power producers to take precautions far beyond what might seem necessary (kind of like making sure an elevator can handle 4000 pounds and then saying the max is 2000 or something).

It’s not being on its own grid that caused the problem here (although obviously being on a larger grid would have helped). It’s the fact that each producer was pretty much left to their best judgment as far as what was needed to survive harsh conditions, and (as private businesses tend to do) many balanced preparedness with profit.

Being their own grid allowed them to more easily create the rules they play by, because if they were connected to the East or West they'd have to play by those rules, being such a small section of one exacerbated it. But agreed on all of that

Crapping on Texans for reaping what they sow is p dumb bc there are only a handful of ppl who truly profit from the Texas setup and I sure you it is not any of the bloggers on this site. It's not an issue that comes up in election years. In fact I would go so fast as to say the vast majority of Texans probably had no idea what ERCOT was until this week, and in fairness they haven't really needed to. Having reliable power just really hasn't been a thing to worry about in Texas, until now.

What I think could be interesting is what happens with the insurance companies. Like it's one thing is you lose power because an iced over tree breach falls on your power line or some other force majeure, but when Centerpoint says ok we're cutting power to these ppl for 36 hours so that Joel Osteen and the rest of River Oaks don't even lose power for a minute... And then your pipes burst...bc the electric company choose to cut your power and leave it off for so long as to cause damage...I dunno. Could get interesting. Or maybe it won't.

Millions of Texans were without power for multiple days. The grid is apparently stable, but there are still some without power. Now thousands of Texans (including me) have been without water service for multiple days, and there is no word on when that might end. Multiple deaths are linked to these facts. Millions or Billions of dollars of property damage has occurred across a vast area. That doesn't begin to take into account the lost productivity.

Yes, the weather was unusual, but this is not some six sigma event. Freezing temperatures across the state have happened before (for instance 1989 and 2011), and should absolutely have been anticipated to happen again.

And so what have our state-wide leaders been up to? Our current governor decided to go on national TV and falsely blame the issues on renewable energy. Our previous governor indicated that Texans would rather deal with extended blackouts than have federal regulations extend to our grid. Our junior senator has managed to become one of the biggest laughing stocks in the entire country, mostly for being an bad person.  This is in addition to the normal TX nonsense like a vocal minority in the legislature calling for secession.

As far as I'm concerned, we Texans deserve to get crapped on a little.

If you are really going to not intervene in the market on the front end, and also don't plan to prevent this market from operating the same way going forward but also plan to bail both parties to the trade out when it goes bad, then yeah I think you should just go ahead and fix the market in an up front way and stop with this ridiculous fantasy that it isn't already fixed for the parties by the government just in a way that also allows a lot of people to get rich.

Let's be clear. Energy prices were clearing at much lower than the maximum allowed by TX statute. The TX Public Utility Commission decided that wasn't how the market was supposed to work, and so decreed that prices should be set to the maximum. Then those prices were passed to end customers using a pricing model that was clearly not envisioned by the legislature when crafting the statute.

It doesn't hurt my feelings. I think that the whole board should resign, as well as all of the officers. That the CEO of ERCOT makes $800k+ is gross. But at the end of the day, ERCOT didn't have regulatory authority to do much of anything. They could have been jumping up and down saying that Texas producers should abide by the voluntary guidelines that FERC came out with after blackouts associated with a winter storm in 2011. But I don't think that people that would be willing to do that would have much chance to be appointed to the ERCOT board anyway.

To me this does not make much sense.  Who cares of they are from out-of-state.  ERCOT does not even make the policy or enforce the policy that led to this event.  It is the legislature and Public Utility Commission of Texas that sets the agenda.  ERCOT only manages the flow of available electricity and can only make suggestions.

When the Texas infrastructure froze in 2021 the price of natural gas shot up so high that Oklahoma gas companies had to overspend by $1.4Bn. The state bailed them out (our governor is a shitbag) by selling bonds and passing the repayment of the bonds onto rate payers for the next 20 years. The 2021 Texas cold snap cost me $1,000.

It's only for like 3 days this time, so they should be good, that being said, hopefully they got a lot of propane tanks to thaw crap out this time. I'm sure the eyes of Texas are on ERCOT this week

ERCOT is claiming they have done a bunch of upgrades since the 2021 calamity and are not worried about having to intentionally cut power for several days to regular honest tax paying texas residents in order to ensure that national treasure joel osteen can keep all 17,000 square feet of his home nice and toasty without any of his backup generators having to kick on at any point.

I wouldn't be surprised if a bunch of power lines just happen to go down (in the middle of the night when nobody is looking) throughout large areas of major population centers, you know, b/c the storms will do that sometimes.

Rick Perry said it and I absolutely agree with him...I would rather die freezing to death in my living room if it preserved the ability for a handful of obscenely wealthy energy executives to continue to make obscene profits via skirting best practices. The people have spoken. We don't want our energy companies to invest in hardening their infrastructure. We want them to slap a bandaid on it for 1/10 of what it should cost, give themselves tidy bonues/raises/stock options/etc., and then we'll all cross our fingers that we don't get another winter death storm.

Oh and then we will blame wind farms in case it happens again.

It’s wood burning fireplace and forced air or something. So I start a fire and then flick a little light switch next to it and then operate the strength of the fan with a twisty knob. I don’t even have this thing full on and it’s heating my entire house. Currently 69 ( ;) ) in the living room/kitchen area. I had it up to 70 earlier today but my heat hating wife made me turn the blower off for a few hours. I love it so much.

Oh yeah that will for sure do the trick. I have family that used to heat their old farmhouse w/ a pellet stove/forced air. They didnt have ac either, just an attic fan.

Don’t I wish! I think it’s mostly oak and walnut. It’s also just a regular looking fireplace built into the wall not a wood burning stove or anything. Buy it by the truckload from different friendly pott county residents.

This sounds amazing. The old farmhouse at the cat ranch has a large stone fireplace on a perimeter wall with some vents at the top and bottom of the stone portion. When you get a fire going the convection will run air from the bottom to the top and the top vents will spit out warm air all night even after the fire is out due to the stone still being warm.

Works great for heating the living room but you still have to use the regular propane furnace to keep the bedrooms warm.

is it true that an abnormally wet winter in CA means more potential for wildfires the following summer (due to excess foliage growth that can later be fire fuel)?

sometimes yes, i think.  depends on more variables than just that.  like, yes the extra annual growth is more fuel, but if there's more ground moisture (and thus higher water content in plants) then that has the opposite effect.

Got about a foot of accumulation in south joco this morning. Probably the most snow I've seen come down in a decade.

167th, it could be closer to 8 inches and some accumulation from yesterday. Felt like a pretty wet snow when I was shoveling it.

My kids have been in school one day since December 20th. They are already prepping parents for snow on Friday. They have Monday off and some are saying school will be closed Tuesday because of the temps.  :sdeek:

A real death storm would shut this rough ridin' place down for months.
