Updates from the City of Longview regarding power and water usage, as well as office and service re-openings--including Covid vaccination appointments.
As power in our area is slowly being restored, more issues are starting to pop up in East Texas from the continuing winter storm that has pretty much shut everything down in our area.

It dawned on me that perhaps some of the wild creatures may be struggling to find food when the ground is covered with snow and ice. Turns out, they are.
The City of Tyler has shared an update with us on locations where residents without electricity or heat can stop by and get warm plus they are sharing information on how you get a free ride to one near you.
Both Oncor and SWEPCO have created a list of things you can do right now to prepare for the cold ahead and to "conserve energy" (How can we conserve energy when we don't have ANY?)
But some Tyler residents are completely without water and some are down to a trickle. So what IS happening? And what does the City recommend Tylerites do?
