retrofitting an existing city from above to underground is incredibly expensive.

In addition, underground power needs a lot more space as there are cooling/ heat transfer issues well above power on poles with good cooling.
It's good if it's new as you pooint out, and you have an abundance of space underground.

16 and feels like 5 in Dallas

It's a winter wonderland with at least a few inches of snow/ice, but the roads are beyond treacherous.

Danggit. I forgot Costco can only sell liquor in two stores here bc of some of our arcane laws.


The SAM'S in Athens also sells liquor and membership is not required because of the arcane Georgia laws. Inventory is kinda limited though.

How does it feel like something it’s not? If it was 5, would it feel like 5 or feel like something else? Did you use the heat index to offset the wind chill factor? Why can the heat index only be used when it’s hot and the wind chill only when it’s cold? What if your a fat baw and you feel like it’s 10 and a skinny baw feels like it’s 3, how do you reconcile both your feelings? Do you both go to a therapist and average out your feelings to see what the temperature feels like?

Up to 172k homes without power in Nashville. Ice accretion stopped for a bit, but has started again. Still lots of moisture yet to come, and temps have topped out.

I’m an air temperature man. I go by what it actually is outside. I don’t give a flying frick about heat index or wind chill.

Only in certain markets where they have a Fox owned station or a distribution deal. No affiliates in Louisiana, Mississippi, and Alabama.

Texas has some and Georgia does too because they have major markets where Fox owns a station.

But if you have internet it is available as a free to air streaming service.

I was watching them overnight, they did a great job.

No issues in Austin other than a glaze of ice on everything. My brother and parents look like they lost power around 4:00a in Shreveport.
