Outage Update: 10 p.m. - A new round of storms is rolling into TVEC territory, but these are much less severe than what we had earlier. Crews continue to work with only 36 members currently without power. Thank you for your patience as our crews and staff work to restore power as quickly and safely as possible.
Outage Update: as of 8:00 p.m., TVEC crews have restored power to more than 1,500 members, with about 750 members remaining without electricity. Restoration efforts will continue into the evening until everyone is back on.
While most of the weather has cleared the area, falling tree limbs or other damage can cause outages after the storm. Please report all outages to make sure we get you back on as quickly as possible.
Report outages at 800-967-9324 or outage texting.
Outage Alert: TVEC crews are responding to multiple outages associated with thunderstorm activity in the service area. You may follow outage restoration progress in the outage center at TVEC.net.

Happy Father's Day to all the dads out there! It may be an underappreciated job sometimes, but the impact is tremendous. Have a great day!
This Tip Tuesday is both a safety tip and a way to save on electricity.
Clothes dryer lint buildup slows airflow, meaning your dryer will take more time to get your clothes dry.
All that lint also creates a fire hazard, one of the leading causes of home fires.
Depending on how your dryer duct is set up, you may be able to access it all by hand. If not, special duct cleaning brushes are available at hardware stores.
While you are at it, check for any leaks in the duct to make sure the hot, humid air is getting all the way out of the house and not fighting with your A/C!
Finally... use cold water as much as possible for laundry to lower hot water expenses, which can make up 9% of your annual home energy costs.
Outage Update: TVEC crews have made steady progress restoring outages after this afternoon’s storms. One large outage remains north of Eustace which is nearing restoration and crews are working through several single outages around the area.
You may follow restoration progress on the outage map at TVEC.net.

TVEC loves supporting local educators because they truly impact our kids in such a big way.
We are on the scene with hundreds of area teachers in Mabank for "Know Your Impact." Sure it is summertime, but that just means there is time for getting even better at doing what they love.
Thanks teachers for all you do!
