Florida started a huge storm resiliency push about 15 years ago. Spent a ton of money on infrastructure hardening so restoration would be faster. Entergy just started doing that this year.

Was going to say wasn't one of the biggest issues with power restoration after Ida due to the age and condition of the electrical infrastructure in LA. You would think that after the damage from Gustav, they would have been more prepared; but it is LA

It started after Frances, charley and Jeanne in 2004 then Wilma unexpectedly wrecking shite in 2005. Buried lines, bolstered poles and shite like that. Also every gas station now has back up generators so they stay up and running.

Florida is a well managed state these days. Leadership down it’s solid. Heading in the right direction too for a large state that it is.
