Frequency very jumpy in both directions in the last 50 minutes

Background from last year:
https://thetexan.news/texas-grid-was...out-per-ercot/The cliff-hanging moment came around 1:50 a.m. on February 15. The transmission frequency which normally operates around 60 Hertz (Hz) dropped below 59.4 Hz for over four and a half minutes.
Shortly before then, ERCOT began ins uting rotating outages that turned into prolonged blackouts.
In ERCOT’s estimation, if frequency remains below that line longer than nine minutes, the volatility from its mean can rupture the alternating current (AC) connections and create very real equipment and infrastructural damage.

We're currently at "Conservation Alert"
Did we survive?
course we did, silly
but it was another close shave.
are you worried about the ongoing political damage?
There's like 50 pages of you hoping for another disaster. You thought you had one when a water pipe broke. I don't think your Beto stands much of a chance whether you get your disaster or not.
I just follow the news.
Abbott and the Texas lege said they had this fixed. That clearly isn't the case.
Price of power was pegged out at the regulatory cap -- $5000/kwH -- for four hours today. That's gonna show up on a lot of power bills.
Oklahoma prices were $108/kwH during the same period. Texas is ed up.
At least you can easily get a gun to shoot yourself, tbh... freedumb!
No thanks...believe it or not I've seldom been better!
No one's hoping for a disaster. Yeah we all want our AC going off when it's ing 105.
the power going off when we need it the most can be life threatening, as we well know from last year. extreme heat is a killer, too.
Weird how we're not hearing any "personal freedom" whining from GOP state reps at the requests to turn thermostats up.
I do wonder what general TX Republicans are doing. Are they conserving energy for the greater good because Greg Abbott asked them to? Or are they still ignoring requests like this but just keeping quiet about it?
Republican control of Texas may not. Talk about an easy thing to run on for Dems.
muh bathroom bills hurr dee dur why is the air conditioning not working?
Mine's on 68F. If the grid dies, it dies.
Mostly small talk and personal gossip from red team -- anything to avoid the topic.
hole Texas
Its a shame Whinehole and RG don't run ERCOT. We could have unlimited cheap energy.
Do you like our state's having the price of electricity ~50 times higher than Oklahoma?
More Chump lying bull

the water pipe saga, all of 2 hours. Oh no, the end is nigh.
How is it lying?
Wholesale prices go up to $5,000/MWh these days.
They're ~$110/MWh at the same time in Oklahoma.
