I have never had a blackout in my midwest state since I moved here in 1995, other than a local city blackout where parts of the grid were affected by early snow that downed power lines in roughly 25% of the city. What sucks is that due to the inability of Texas to regulate its power industry, the 2021 blizzard caused spikes in natural gas for everyone in the region. I'm still paying the stupid fee for the excess charges. And sure, we'll need to have a conversation about global cooling. Nice talking point from the climate change deniers you have in your back pocket.
