February 14, 2021 - Extreme Cold/Wind Chill

Extreme cold gripped the county for several days. Overnight lows were below 20 degrees Fahrenheit for most of the week. The period of February 15-16th was the coldest with low temperatures between 5 and -5 degrees Fahrenheit. The maximum temperature on the 15th was only in the lower teens. Wind chill values during the 14th-16th were between 0 to -15 degrees Fahrenheit most of the time. The cold temperatures resulted in an extreme amount of damage to pipes, infrastructure, and power. One indirect fatality occurred in Collin County due to the cold: an elderly male passed away in early March from health complications that were exaggerated by frostbite during this time period.

Power out since 7:17pm this evening.

Stan | November 27, 2021  

Power went out at my house located in Chase Oaks Village off Legacy and Chase Oaks 75023 Monday at 3:30 am and has not come back on at all and it is now Thursday night. I have reported this three times with out an ounce of response. This is completely incomprehensible and criminal that this has happened to myself and so many people in my area. I’d even accept rolling blackouts but continuous loss of power for almost four days is insane. Fix this!!!!!!!

Kathy | February 18, 2021  

We have had about 2 MINS of power since Monday morning 8:30 AM! While businesses down the street didn't lose power at all! How is this fair?

Ray | February 17, 2021  

Power out on Matterhorn Dr 75075 while some east of Custer north of Parker have been minimally impacted or have not lost. What happen to the rolling blackouts?

Ray | February 16, 2021  

We lost power starting Monday morning at 2:00 a.m. Over the past 34 hours, we have had a total of about 6 hours with power. Usually power is off for 8-12 hours then comes on for 1-2 hours. This is merciless with the temperatures near 0 degrees. What the heck is going on? Other areas in Plano have not had any power outages at all! What gives? We were told there would be rolling blackouts. What a dishonest thing to say. Our state leaders need to look into this. We deserve an answer as to why some areas are near total blackout and other areas have not lost electricity at all.
