When hurricane IKE hit in 2008, it took 2-3 weeks for nearly everyone to have power again. This expectation that 99% of customers would be back online within 2-3 days was ridiculous. CenterPoint should have had the guts to tell the truth up front and the elected officials need to stop grandstanding as if they are utility line experts and electrical engineers that know what they are talking about. If you live on the Gulf Coast you need to have a generator and window unit air conditioner to be able to live in one room of your home in comfort. Nursing homes, retirement community apartments, and medical facilities should be required by state law to have natural gas generators that allow them to operate as if nothing was wrong when all utility company generated power is lost. The real end date for nearly everyone to have power again is end of July. If your property had catastrophic damages, you will be lucky to have everything back in pre hurricane condition, after an insurance claim, by Christmas.
