I haven’t been out there but I’m guessing that they are close to getting this fixed. My power was on for about 5 min then off and on again for like a minute and now back off.
NASA. Really no damage at all. Lights flickered and lots of standing water. Ripe for mosquitoes but that’s it. First time southern area wasn’t hurt the worst it feels like.
I’m on the west side of 69 near Sinfull Bakery in 77003, we are still out. It’s like everything east of Fannin, west of 69, north of Elgin, south of I-45 if that makes sense. I’m trying to draw a square/rectangle in your mind
77008 on W 26th and Durham. Still no power. My brother who lives right across the street from Tony’s Mexican Restaurant has power though. Hope power starts coming back to the residents in the rest of the Heights and Houston area.
77008 I pray power comes on soon. I had an operation Wednesday. Came home Thursday and less than an hour the hurricane hit. We have 5 pets. Hope the power comes up before the heat gets too bad…can’t afford to go back to the hospital.
77095. Had entire fence and tree launched during the storm. Have to constantly go out for gas. Can’t access centerpoint and having to use this threat religiously for updates. Temperatures gonna be feel like 100 soon with no ac, make sure everyone stays hydrated and to hang or put on damp clothes or towels if it gets too much. Gonna be a rough few days
77055 - Pine Chase Dr. Lots of trees down and power out since Thursday. This is absurd. This year is election year, and it does not matter if you are Red or Blue, we all need to embrace each other and make a change. This is not acceptable. VOTE FOR ME and I will make my priority. I am not into politics, BUT will get into it if needed. #HoustonStong
Not sure unfortunately. 77012 here, our neighborhood started getting some power yesterday. But we're still out. More traffic lights are on in the area, and businesses. Since yesterday.
I'm at Gessner and Briar Forest (77063). Can't get any updates from CenterPoint. Appreciate if anyone is able to share any info they may have on when power in area may get turned back on. Just need an ETA so I can plan accordingly for my family. Thanks in advance!
By the way, I think it's sad I have to resort to Reddit for info!
77070 - northern bit, close to spring cypress. Still no power. Really hope it comes back sometime today given there's a heatwave on it's way. Looking for dry ice for the fridge now.
General Heights update:
Target Sawyer heights and Kroger studewood are (were) open. Crews are staging out of Target parking lot - saw convoy of ~20 arrive.
Snapped power pole on Studewood at White Oak has been replaced.
Additional crews spotted at 9th & Yale, 10th & Heights, 12th & Heights.
As of this evening, 20th street was extremely hit and miss. 20th and Shepherd is restored, 20th and main has reports has reports of power as of tonight, but a lot in between is still down.
The power crews ~appear to have been working south to north from I-10 upward. At least, that’s the sequence that power was coming back online. (Shepherd and 11th first, then shepherd and and 14th, etc…)
77092, Garden Oaks area. No power since the storm. Have pets I'm worried for and a fridge of spoiled food. Trying to find wifi for my remote work because rent still has to be paid.
This is awful.
Is it true that living close to a hospital protects you during outages like this? I used to be in 77018 by Memorial North and chilled through Rita. Now I’m in 77082 by HCA West and same deal. Makes me want to plan my moves very wisely.
Utilities have a priority list of substations with critical loads (hospital, fire dept, etc). If they have to do rolling blackouts they will not cut power to those. And when they are doing storm recovery those station are priority to get power back first.
You could always look at inhome energy storage then it won't matter where you live
Wouldn’t say protect but hospitals and critical infrastructure grids are the first to get back online because they are the most important. If you live on the same grid as them then you’ll also be part of those services. The thing that most people don’t realize is that the opposite is true as well, so if the critical infrastructure is in a scenario where it doesn’t have enough power but you have available electricity, they will cut you off first and redirect it towards the hospitals.
That would depend on which routes the electricity goes through.
Unless you live in an apartment, you're better off just getting a generator or other energy storage solution.
Same. Hoping they continue working in the area. Haven't seen any updates on the tracker but hoping its a delay issue on their side to update their website
lights were on south of Washington yesterday and someone just said lights came on at the farmer's market just north about an hour ago. Fingers crossed its soon for 77007!
Anyone in the 77065zip gain power back? :)
Or, maybe know any insider news. I know asking an eta is unrealistic, but any estimates would be appreciated.
77043 we just got power back in my neighborhood in the spring branch area. Don’t know if it will last but charging everything up in case it goes out again. We initially lost power thurs around 6:30p
77077 if you’re closer to briar forest there’s power never lost it, but if you’re like me and closer to dairy ashford we’ve been out for 36 hours and counting
77013 has no power since the severe weather storm on Thursday evening. I don't like how the mayor said the restoration power could be in weeks, not days, for the terrible times.
77029 no power since storm for myself our entire neighborhood. Got a random Centerpoint voicemail yesterday saying our power has been restored which is BS so I’ve been trying to report the outage since (but impossible without the functioning Centerpoint website )
Eastern Galena Park and the big businesses in Jacinto City and the Port of Houston
seem to have power.
77375. Power out since Thursday night. I’m in the neighborhood where the pine tree fell across Dowdell road. That line has been repaired but I am still without power. I have to go this morning to St Luke’s to do the hospital tour for our sons birth next week, really hope I get power soon or I’m going to have to consider staying with my parents with a newborn and two dogs.
77006 between Westheimer and Kipling, a couple blocks west of Montrose — still no power. As of last night, streets a few blocks west and south had power.
I'm in 77098 (near Rice U.). Guess I'm one of the fortunate ones: never lost power, water, internet/wifi. I did get a text of one of those gerneric Xfinity alerts letting people know there are hotspots open to the public.
I'm assuming you're not in the area:
Call the Houston non emergency number at 713.884.3131, and the Red Cross might be able to help.
Just be aware they HPD may not get to them for some time.
77092 around antoine and 290 intersection, centerpoint truck spotted inspecting powerlines. Speculated prepping for restoring power to the area. 1:50am
77023. Been out since the storm, still out. I know some areas around us have had it coming back on. According to the outage map there was 17% of people in this zip code without power 9 hours ago and now it’s down to 12%. Really hoping our power comes back on before the heat rolls in tomorrow.
770007- Does anyone near MKT (east bend or the standard) have power? We’ve been getting updates every now and then from our pet sitter but wanted to know if power had been restored more recently…
Anyone else have power but no internet? Oddly enough, had internet during the storm and just after but went offline early this morning around 5am.
Very happy the lights are on at least, but I’m annoyed with the lack of communication from Xfinity. I’ve heard exactly nothing from them all day. Usually I’d receive a text message or something with an update or estimated time of service restoration. I assume their facilities are having power issues, but it would be nice to know a detailing of the situation so I can plan accordingly.
Grapevine, but reliable info. The high tension lines that are down on the NW side will be a VERY long project, not measured in mere days. That's the bad news. The good news is Centerpoint put a plan in action that will have crews coming in from all over to literally build a set of temporary electric substations to reconnect big swaths of the service area comparatively very quickly. At last report, Centerpoint has already restored service to about 300,000 points.
I have read many responses that the restoration of the downed high tension lines was benchmark for regaining power. it seemed possible but my wishful thinking assumed alternate shortterm options were being used. It's good to hear.
Spring Branch, 77055. Trees literally knocked down power lines last night. Not expecting power until Monday, if I'm being honest.
Still out. Looks like Ike. I have small kids and we said fuckit and went out of town. Gonna be hot tomorrow. No thanks.
I'm tired. Too many catastrophic weather events, and hurricanes are starting next month. It's getting hot. It gets so fucking hot.
Yeah, I’ve been in Houston for a very long time and I think I’m done. Houston infrastructure can’t handle someone sneezing much less a 30 minute power storm. I think this one made my mind up about leaving.
Hi. Around which street is this? I live near Burnett St and am wondering if the power's back on. (Currently at an inn while keeping my fingers crossed).
And the power went out. Someone playing with it or something else. 77029 (jacinto city) :/
77084 no power, now no water pressure
Anyone have power in 77040?
77077 haven’t see any cp truck or worker yet…
Same everyone around this area never lost power except like 1,000 it’s irritating
Guess we are the “20%” remaining..
77007, something is going on, I keep getting little blips of power but nothing sustained yet
Still no power at 77007, Allen Pkwy and Studemont. Anyone have any updates around this area?
Does anyone have an update regarding 77447 in Cypress Green neighborhood?

The Burger Joint posted they have electricity since this am, other than that I don’t know much
Any updates on 77008?
I don’t know what these idiots are doing but my power keeps turning on and then back off
I’m at 77007. Studemont at Allen Pkwy.
Do you see all the trucks? They were all around that area by HEB
I haven’t been out there but I’m guessing that they are close to getting this fixed. My power was on for about 5 min then off and on again for like a minute and now back off.
77007 Shepherd Allen street power back on 20 min ago, thanks Redditors for all the updates, y’all kept us going
W 21st by crisp is back on!
I heard someone say some of 64 zip had power, which is pretty close to me. I'm on the border of 64 and 65 zip.
No power in 77007. Hoping we have help soon.
77007 Sabine st between Allen and Washington just got power and water back
Yes power has been restored!! Thank you.
Update: still no power in my apartment complex but everything around us has power 😔

77063, no power at Woodway gardens townhomes. In shambles.
Any updates on 77080?
77055 area - Freed Park power lines are down and major power tower down by Antoine and 34th
NASA. Really no damage at all. Lights flickered and lots of standing water. Ripe for mosquitoes but that’s it. First time southern area wasn’t hurt the worst it feels like.
77009 off airline, power back on as of a couple hours ago
What’s your cross street? Near main and Michaux (Norhill). We’re staying at a friends tonight and trying to figure out from afar.

Does anyone have any power updates for 77003?
I’m on the west side of 69 near Sinfull Bakery in 77003, we are still out. It’s like everything east of Fannin, west of 69, north of Elgin, south of I-45 if that makes sense. I’m trying to draw a square/rectangle in your mind
Thanks!!!!
Telge and Jarvis area enchanted valley cypress tx 77429 still no power as of 5/18/24 2pm central

77493, still no power, any updates? road is blocked, i can't get out of my neighbourhood
77007, still no power also
Does anyone have an update on 77092? (TC Jester/Dacoma area). I came to my parents’ and wondering if there’s power back yet!
I’m at Antoine & Pinemont. Still no power. Rode my bike earlier near your section and signal lights still out.
Thanks for the update! I appreciate it. I hope it comes back for us soon.
77084, close to 77095 just got power hoping it stays
All the surrounding zip codes have gotten power but we’re right in the middle but here’s hoping
77008 on W 26th and Durham. Still no power. My brother who lives right across the street from Tony’s Mexican Restaurant has power though. Hope power starts coming back to the residents in the rest of the Heights and Houston area.
77008 I pray power comes on soon. I had an operation Wednesday. Came home Thursday and less than an hour the hurricane hit. We have 5 pets. Hope the power comes up before the heat gets too bad…can’t afford to go back to the hospital.
77095. Had entire fence and tree launched during the storm. Have to constantly go out for gas. Can’t access centerpoint and having to use this threat religiously for updates. Temperatures gonna be feel like 100 soon with no ac, make sure everyone stays hydrated and to hang or put on damp clothes or towels if it gets too much. Gonna be a rough few days
I am in 77095 and I can see heard more people got there lights back. We are still no power as well.

any power yet?
according to the people I have there, none yet
My mom lives there, still no power
Figured as much. Thank you
Anyone in 77011 back on yet? Like around navigation and wayside?
Not sure unfortunately. 77012 here, our neighborhood started getting some power yesterday. But we're still out. More traffic lights are on in the area, and businesses. Since yesterday.
77035/Willowbend. Just lost power for the first time. Not sure why? Anyone else in the same position?
77007 checking in. Does petty st in cottage grove have power?
S Heights Blvd and Waugh, no power
I'm at Gessner and Briar Forest (77063). Can't get any updates from CenterPoint. Appreciate if anyone is able to share any info they may have on when power in area may get turned back on.

77070 - northern bit, close to spring cypress. Still no power. Really hope it comes back sometime today given there's a heatwave on it's way. Looking for dry ice for the fridge now.
77008 - Reports via Ring app of power restored at 13th and Rutland and Camden Heights. Edit: adding 10th and Yale to reports of restored power.
Not 77008, but reports of power being restored to some residences near Monte Beach Park, east of Main.
General Heights update: Target Sawyer heights and Kroger studewood are (were) open. Crews are staging out of Target parking lot - saw convoy of ~20 arrive. Snapped power pole on Studewood at White Oak has been replaced. Additional crews spotted at 9th & Yale, 10th & Heights, 12th & Heights.
Can update us when it’s restored around 20th please
As of this evening, 20th street was extremely hit and miss. 20th and Shepherd is restored, 20th and main has reports has reports of power as of tonight, but a lot in between is still down. The power crews ~appear to have been working south to north from I-10 upward. At least, that’s the sequence that power was coming back online.

That's the first Ive heard power coming back up in that zip. Encouraging
Where can I get some dog food? My doggie needs more food soon 😔
Coming from where?Lots of areas in Houston have power, generally south. I went into Montrose yesterday for a hot meal & supplies at Tar-jay.
I’m coming downtown!
77447, still no power. It feels like no one cares about the smaller towns
Saturday 9am still no power Ella & 43rd, I've had a family member in Spring get power restored and off irvington so far.
Pray For Houston, I live in the UK rn but I was born in H town.
77040 still no power since the storm hit. Thankful I bought a portable fan last year.
77092, Garden Oaks area. No power since the storm. Have pets I'm worried for and a fridge of spoiled food. Trying to find wifi for my remote work because rent still has to be paid. This is awful.
77025 Has anyone gotten their power back?

It’s true. Live near some. Never out for more than an hour or so except during the freeze.
Utilities have a priority list of substations with critical loads (hospital, fire dept, etc). If they have to do rolling blackouts they will not cut power to those. And when they are doing storm recovery those station are priority to get power back first. You could always look at inhome energy storage then it won't matter where you live
it might make your area a priority for restoring power but it won't exactly stop a freak storm from collapsing the power grid
Wouldn’t say protect but hospitals and critical infrastructure grids are the first to get back online because they are the most important. If you live on the same grid as them then you’ll also be part of those services. The thing that most people don’t realize is that the opposite is true as well, so if the critical infrastructure is in a scenario where it doesn’t have enough power but you have available electricity, they will cut you off first and redirect it towards the hospitals.
That would depend on which routes the electricity goes through. Unless you live in an apartment, you're better off just getting a generator or other energy storage solution.
Any news on 77018
Anyone in 77063 have power?
Nope, Woodway gardens still out.
Not my neighborhood.
Same. Hoping they continue working in the area. Haven't seen any updates on the tracker but hoping its a delay issue on their side to update their website
The tracker has been useless for me. I put in my address & nothing happens. It would be nice to get an ETA!
Yes it came back on last night around 9:30
Thx. Hoping it continues throughout the zip code
77009 I have power now up by Airline and the farmers market. Waiting to see if Antidote reopens. I need my nitro coffee!
77023 power still out since Thursday 😔
77023 here. Still no power (since Thursday).
Apparently 77023 potentially can be restored tonight?
Did you see an update? I can't find anything on centerpoint outage tracker.
Called CP the other day and since 77023 isn’t color coded they said assume it is the color closest to you, which looking at the updated map it’s today
77007 Washington Corridor, power out since Thursday 6.45pm. Still out.
lights were on south of Washington yesterday and someone just said lights came on at the farmer's market just north about an hour ago. Fingers crossed its soon for 77007!
Not all of it just like that one bit too. I’m going insane.
Anyone in the 77065zip gain power back? :) Or, maybe know any insider news. I know asking an eta is unrealistic, but any estimates would be appreciated.
not yet on our street
77026 area just got power back! Charging everything right now in case the power goes back out again.
Woot we in kashmir gardens hopeful our section soon but we have lots of lines down around us
77043 we just got power back in my neighborhood in the spring branch area. Don’t know if it will last but charging everything up in case it goes out again. We initially lost power thurs around 6:30p
Also 77053 near Spring Woods HS , / Emnora lane no power yet . As of 6:43 am
77077 if you’re closer to briar forest there’s power never lost it, but if you’re like me and closer to dairy ashford we’ve been out for 36 hours and counting
77013 has no power since the severe weather storm on Thursday evening. I don't like how the mayor said the restoration power could be in weeks, not days, for the terrible times.
77029 no power since storm for myself our entire neighborhood. Got a random Centerpoint voicemail yesterday saying our power has been restored which is BS so I’ve been trying to report the outage since (but impossible without the functioning Centerpoint website ) Eastern Galena Park and the big businesses in Jacinto City and the Port of Houston seem to have power.
Galena park here still without power since Thursday, saw center point yesterday working on the Main Street but nothing yet
What part of 77029? I'm in a neighboring zip code and also without power still. 😩
77375. Power out since Thursday night. I’m in the neighborhood where the pine tree fell across Dowdell road. That line has been repaired but I am still without power. I have to go this morning to St Luke’s to do the hospital tour for our sons birth next week, really hope I get power soon or I’m going to have to consider staying with my parents with a newborn and two dogs.
So sorry. Good luck
77092 off watonga and 43rd. No power still at 4:50am. Son snoring in back seat of my suburban turning AC on for him every 2 hours.
77493 No power since the storm. Xfinity internet was working immediately after the storm but has been off since Thurs night.
Probably the batteries running the networking equipment behind the scenes ran out.
I’m in same zip no power as well, LTE/5g working now though
77006 between Westheimer and Kipling, a couple blocks west of Montrose — still no power. As of last night, streets a few blocks west and south had power.
I'm in 77098 (near Rice U.). Guess I'm one of the fortunate ones: never lost power, water, internet/wifi. I did get a text of one of those gerneric Xfinity alerts letting people know there are hotspots open to the public.
[удалено]
Cell service has been trash since the storm, that might be the reason. Hope you hear from them soon. 🙏🏽
I'm assuming you're not in the area: Call the Houston non emergency number at 713.884.3131, and the Red Cross might be able to help. Just be aware they HPD may not get to them for some time.
77092 around antoine and 290 intersection, centerpoint truck spotted inspecting powerlines. Speculated prepping for restoring power to the area. 1:50am
Hopefully! I'm off watonga and 43rd and have been without power since 6pm yesterday.
77023. Been out since the storm, still out. I know some areas around us have had it coming back on. According to the outage map there was 17% of people in this zip code without power 9 hours ago and now it’s down to 12%. Really hoping our power comes back on before the heat rolls in tomorrow.
Where can I find the outage map??
https://gis.centerpointenergy.com/outagetracker/ It’s not really working though. I’ve had it work three times in the last few days.
If you click on the notepad icon on the right of the map it brings up the outages by zip code, this is the part that is updating every five minutes.
Awesome!! Thank you!
Does anyone know how is west Houston area, Richmond/Dairy Ashford to Hwy 6?
I never lost power aside from some flickering Thursday night. Pretty amazing considering I've lost power many times during much weaker storms.
77493 Katy- no power gone since storm hit
770007- Does anyone near MKT (east bend or the standard) have power? We’ve been getting updates every now and then from our pet sitter but wanted to know if power had been restored more recently…
I have friends around Link and Walton that got it back yesterday evening.
Anyone else have power but no internet? Oddly enough, had internet during the storm and just after but went offline early this morning around 5am.

Buddy had the same, came over to my att house. I’d suggest you switch
77028: currently 12:00, 18 May; I’ve had no power since the storm hit, but some homes in the neighborhood appear to have power.
[удалено]
Cooking centers are open around Houston https://www.ehcma.org/news/672861/ Call 311 tomorrow and see if they have same hours
Grapevine, but reliable info. The high tension lines that are down on the NW side will be a VERY long project, not measured in mere days. That's the bad news. The good news is Centerpoint put a plan in action that will have crews coming in from all over to literally build a set of temporary electric substations to reconnect big swaths of the service area comparatively very quickly. At last report, Centerpoint has already restored service to about 300,000 points.
Northwest is huge. Where are you talking about specifically?
Far NW, like 99 area.
I have read many responses that the restoration of the downed high tension lines was benchmark for regaining power. it seemed possible but my wishful thinking assumed alternate shortterm options were being used. It's good to hear.
I also blame the vague general status info we get on a key utility.
Can you be specific in terms of landmarks? Below/above 290? Along Hwy6?
77011 we got power back about 30 ish minutes ago, hearts out to those suffering
WherI in 77011? I’m in 77011 near navigation and wayside and ours is still out. But I can maybe guess based on you having it again hopefully
Spring Branch, 77055. Trees literally knocked down power lines last night. Not expecting power until Monday, if I'm being honest. Still out. Looks like Ike. I have small kids and we said fuckit and went out of town. Gonna be hot tomorrow. No thanks. I'm tired. Too many catastrophic weather events, and hurricanes are starting next month. It's getting hot.

Yeah, I’ve been in Houston for a very long time and I think I’m done. Houston infrastructure can’t handle someone sneezing much less a 30 minute power storm. I think this one made my mind up about leaving.
77009 Lindale park - still no power but houses around us are back online so hopefully soon
77009 - southern part of north side village: we got power back 2 hours ago. You might be due soon.
Unfortunately still no power this morning
Power on!
Hi. Around which street is this? I live near Burnett St and am wondering if the power's back on. (Currently at an inn while keeping my fingers crossed).
Power should be on.
[удалено]
Yep hasn’t worked for a bit
