Pretty overblown, been WFH in Texas for 8 years now, the big freeze was the only time we had a power outage, and the only time in my life in Texas we had ice for more than 3 days for that matter.

Is it much better WFH in California during fire season? Seems worse with controlled shutdowns vs friendly letters to conserve energy.

edit: actually a squirrel blew itself and a transformer up on our street one time, that took down power for an hour or so.

edit2: to the poster below, it's possible Oncor in that area is mismanaged like most of ATX, but your experience does not align with my experience.
