You're assuming that if they had power from an external grid they

It's not as if storm damage didn't happen just because the power is
still on.

Freezing rain can ice up the blades. Just like aircraft wings, iced up
blades don't provide lift and, if they do, it can be turbulent, going
in and out of stalled conditions, which can break the blades,
bearings, etc. So shut down

My mom's house is the same as mine construction wise...twice back in the
1960's , we had cars driven by drunks hit our front porch and living room
walls. The wooden porch poles broke but the wall stopped the cars dead...
Our walls are 10 inches

Yep that is the deal most homes are either heat pump or Natural Gas. The
Natural Gas hs had issues keeping up to causing heaters to run longer
using more electricity. Yes is gets hot in the summers max though on
average is 110 deg F if you cool your house to 75 then your only looking
at a 35

The rolling blackouts were in response to the reduced capacity
and ice damage. It's a cascade thing. This has happened to Texas
about every 10 years since the late 90s.

Wind power is only ~20 - 25% of texas' available power sources(~25-30MW
without actually looking it up). That is at peak generating capacity
during the summer when there is a lot more wind. Wind power in texas
currently exceeds historical output for this time of year even with a large
number of
Apart from down power lines, because of temperature in single digit and -10 to
-15 with windchill factors, demand is unprecedented and not enough supply so we
are seeing rolling blackouts too. In Last 24 hrs, first outage at my home was
2.5 hrs, we had two more each lasting 2 hrs I think.

A Air Conditioner or Heat Pump nominally provides about 3-5KW of cooling or
heating for every 1 KW it uses in electricity. Texas has a lot of heat pumps
that don’t work well or at all when temperatures get into the teens and they
switch to a straight electric resistance heat. Electric usage

I dont understand the rolling blackouts. its hot as balls in texas in the
summer so youd figure peak demand with all the AC then is well over what it
is in the winter. Whats stepping up the winter demand? are you guys mostly
electric heat and hot water or something there?

El Paso Electric which serves our area and Southern New Mexico is not part
of the other Texas utilities experiencing rolling power outages. Back in
2011 we had power outages and water pipe damage. Both utilities took steps
to prove systems with anti-freeze technology and all types of sensors.
