Nearly 20,000 electric customers in the Killeen area â just under 30% of all customers served in the Killeen area â remained without power Tuesday, and there is no timetable for its return.
Houses and buildings in the surrounding areas, such as Copperas Cove and Harker Heights also remained dark â some for more than 24 hours.
One Copperas Cove resident, Ashley Price, said she and her family had to flee Copperas Cove for a family memberâs home in Leander who still has power.
âIt was just unbearable,â Price said. âIt was 49 degrees in our house.â
Price said her familyâs power went out on Saturday, before the winter storm pushed through. Many others in Killeen and Copperas Cove reported their power going out between 2 and 5 a.m. Monday, and it was still out on Tuesday.
