I'm guessing before much longer, we'll be doing rolling blackouts too. Power demand has to be astronomical.

Stillwater City Manager Norman McNickle informed the News Press shortly before 11 a.m. that the Southwest Power Pool had just elevated the Energy Emergency Alert issued for its 17-state territory to Level 3, the highest level.
A level 3 alert means the power supplier can no longer meet the demand for all of its customers and power curtailments could become necessary.
If that happens, member utilities will not receive enough power to meet all their customers' demand and may have to implement temporary rolling blackouts.
McNickle said the City of Stillwater doesn't know yet how much its operations will be impacted or what measures will have to be taken. It depends on how much of the load has to be shed, he said

Well never mind. They are here I guess.
Saw your thread right after I hit enter.
Green Deal will solve everything....
I’d go without power for a week if they would put AOC in a trailer without power near Edmond with nothing but Brussels sprouts to eat.

Not me, I don't want to deal with all the busted pipes, even if I shut off the water and drain everything.
A friend called and told me about it. I took all my empty gas can and filled them up, filled the wife's Subaru, charged all my flashlight batteries, and drug the outside generator in the house to warm up before I need it. I have plenty of stored water. I don't know what they are going to do but, I guess I'm about as ready as I can be.
Not sure about Oklahoma City but I just received an automated message from the City of Seminole asking for everyone to reduce electrical usage or they may need to use rolling blackouts.
