No power since 4 o’clock Monday morning I have elderly parents I don’t know how this could be acceptable 32° inside the house. We are in Axtell TX 209 Walters Way there’s residence here that do have power but we don’t have power which suggests to me that you have a problem that you’re not aware of more than likely a simple problem like a blow fuse on a pole but you can’t talk to anybody got a heartbeat.
