Anybody got power rationing/rolling power blackouts this week? TVA said all 153 Tennessee utilities had to cut back 10% today. At this time yesterday ours said it would not happen. 6 AM, this morning, 5 degrees, no power or heat, no notice. texted the media guy at the utility. They put it on radio and Facebook. Radio not on at 6 AM, especially with no power, and I want no facebook. Came back on in 30 minutes, off again at 8 AM, supposedly over now. Did not know whether to sit tight, pull out generator, boil water in camper for coffee, etc. They said they could not post a schedule because it was happening too fast. Sounds kinda random. I have a bunch of emergency heat and cooking stuff, just nice to have some notice. Sounds like gasoline, toilet paper, potatoes, etc. Hide it and run the price up. If 2 days of cold did this, glad it is warming up soon.
