Over 250,000 homes and businesses in the central and southern U.S. were left without power after a winter storm brought snow, ice, and frigid temperatures. The current storm lingers in several states causing disruptions, with power outages reported extensively. The National Weather Service has indicated that as this storm moves offshore, Arctic air will replace it, further dropping the daytime temperature significantly.
Governors from multiple states, including Kansas and Kentucky, have declared states of emergency in response to the severe weather conditions affecting their regions. The Electric Reliability Council of Texas (ERCOT) has also issued a weather watch through January 10, anticipating increased electrical demands due to the cold weather. There are forecasts indicating that ERCOT's grid operations should remain stable even amidst the weather-induced challenges.
