Edit: most people in Goodwood will have their power back by tonight

"Goodwood area" is a bit vague, but yeah, Broadmoor is still without power. fricking brutal.

Now we will have a Goodwood Outage Service Fee for the next five years.

just saw some people in the Goodwood area won’t have power until Friday

WBRZ’s article reported that the Friday thing was for some businesses on S Choctaw.

Surely they will get a large neighborhood like that up before Friday.

Entergy Outsge Map still showing 7 pm on Wednesday 8/2/23

Aboot 1,400 houses in the Broadmoor area without power atm. Looks like area-wide is north is 2,000 houses around BR.


I’m sure the ones with generators are dancing and the others are gathering pitchforks.

You'd think a 3 trillion dollar infrastructure bill could help out with something like this.

I live a block over from Broadmoor High school. The power was back on at 9:05 last night . I purposely stuck myself in the entergy crew. The last thing they did last night was to connect the breakers on the main line on Goodwood at Woodhaven St. next to the drainage ditch. At 10PM they went to the house. It was a 16 hour day for them.

There are still small parts of Broadmoor still with out power because of trees that blew over pulled down the power lines . Those trees will have to be cleared away before the crew can re string new power lines. We have huge oaks that the trunks were split in half from the strong winds. It is just as bad or worse than the damage from Gustav.
