The heat wave hit 110s to 120 on certain days. Doubt Texas ever had to handle that high for an extended time.

There’s a big difference between 110s and 100s. Maybe the mobile goalpost should be reading comprehension.

Is it really that hard to understand peak demand scales up faster with every degree past the 100s. Certain people can limit ac use in the 100s. That number is way lower in the 110s. Your hottest days were our average summer day.
