Strong winter system brings closures, rolling blackouts

A rare frigid blast of arctic air coupled with an overnight snowstorm brought historic wintry conditions to Northeast Texas, taking out power for tens of thousands of homes and businesses while also closing schools and businesses. Electric delivery company Oncor warned early Monday of rolling blackouts ordered by the Electric Reliability Council of Texas, or ERCOT, some of which could last up to 45 minutes at a time. ERCOT issued the order as Texans strained the state’s electric grid trying to stay warm as temperatures fell into the single digits and wind chills dipped to below -10. Lamar Electric Cooperative on Monday said blackouts should last 15 to 20 minutes at a time, and there was no set schedule for when blackouts would occur. Feeders were selected base on varying orders of load to reduce, the company stated in a Facebook post.
