Why this matters in Willis
For residents of Willis, the preparations being made by CenterPoint Energy are particularly relevant given the city's history of flooding and its proximity to Lake Conroe. As a part of the Greater Houston area, Willis is susceptible to the same heavy rain and thunderstorms that are forecasted for the region. The potential for power outages is a concern, especially for those who rely on electricity for life-sustaining medical equipment. CenterPoint's efforts to pre-stage crews and equipment across the area, including in Montgomery County, will be crucial in quickly restoring power to affected areas. Residents of Willis can take steps to prepare by enrolling in CenterPoint's Power Alert Service and having an emergency plan in place, which can help minimize the impact of any outages that may occur. By being proactive, residents can help ensure their safety and the safety of their loved ones.
