Edit: I heard wrong and most will have power by tonight.
I feel bad for those who are still without power in this heat and I can’t imagine being without power until Friday. The news said most people will have their power back on by 10pm tonight. I pray we don’t have any hurricanes this year.

What the hell would cause four days of power outage?
Eta: Entergy has made zero progress in 24 hours in Broadmoor/Sherwood

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

The blue pill can get power to the good wood area, so I’ve heard.

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.

Sorry, I heard wrong. Thanks for correcting me and glad to hear that because that is too damn long to be without power right now.

We have an older lady in one of our rentals in Goodwood and I called her when I read this and her address switched over to 10pm tomorrow a couple of hours ago. I offered to pay for a room for her but she didn't want to leave. I really hope she gets power on soon, this is surprising to me given the fairly low number of outages yesterday. I assume there must be a piece of equipment that is the issue. Anyone know the cause?

Anecdotally, I was over there today looking in on older relatives this am and then bringing them some gas after work.
Both trips, 9hrs apart, there was a mass of Entergy trucks on Elizabeth by the high school working on several different parts of the high transmission line that runs through there.
My guess is that’s the issue—whatever it is. Because there were 8 Entergy trucks there, and nowhere else in the neighborhood despite trees and smaller lines down everywhere.

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

Neighbors across the street lost power but I didn’t. Talked to the crew last night working a few streets over and they were packing up for the night. Said they were going to pick up where they left off in the morning

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.

That's a hell of a deal. I don't understand why old people are so damn stubborn.

I think it’s less stubborn and more that they have paranoias and fears due to mental and physical decline. They may be uncomfortable at home, but they will feel safe in a way that they won’t somewhere else, no matter how much more objectively safe that other place might actually be.

They are still working, the renter called to tell me her power just came on. The house is on Carolyn Sue which goes south off Goodwood at the elementary school/Baptist church.
