Resources For You to Stay Updated & Report Outages During the Storm

January 23, 2026

As winter weather approaches the area later today, I want to update you with resources to ensure you can directly access the latest information. 

Texas Division of Emergency Management (TDEM) – https://tdem.texas.gov/
This site serves as the “hub” for the state’s emergency management program, and includes links to warming centers, general preparedness information and other helpful information.

To find a situation overview given to elected officials this morning, along with forecast maps and radars, CLICK HERE.

To find the latest forecast, visit the National Weather Service Fort Worth –
https://www.weather.gov/fwd/
 
To monitor road conditions – drivetexas.org

To check the latest grid conditions – https://www.ercot.com/

To monitor any power outages and find power company information
puc.texas.gov/storm/#txwx#txlege

From the above link, if you need to report an outage, click on the “Texas Utility Contacts” in the yellow box as shown in the picture below. When you call, if possible, you need to have your ESI ID number available. You can find that number on your most recent electric bill.



Please stay warm, stay safe and check on your neighbors.
