This is a week about every 10 years best case, right now, where I’m at (near Austin). We lose water for twice that long every 5 years. The reliability is probably less than 99% for power, and 95% for water.
- xibalba 6y agoFellow Austinite here. To what events are you referring? I have no recollection of multiday power or water outages in the last 10 years.
- AgentOrange1234 6y agoWe had a boil water notice that lasted for a couple weeks after bad storms just a year or two ago, and now this one. I don’t think we’ve had power issues like this recently.
- tankenmate 6y agoDo you live near a hospital? I have seen reported in some news articles that people who live near hospitals have been less affected.
- sanp 6y agothechao is probably referring to the 2011 outage - dunno if that was multi-day though
