Weather Watch

Grid conditions are expected to be normal during a Weather Watch. ERCOT continues to monitor conditions closely and will deploy all available tools to manage the grid as part of our reliability-first approach to operations.

What Is a Weather Watch?

An ERCOT Weather Watch is an advance notification of forecasted significant weather with high demand. Grid conditions are expected to be normal, but due to forecasted conditions, operating reserves may be lower.

Critical Medical Needs Reminder

If you have medical needs, we suggest you contact your local electric utility and notify them. Controlled outages are not expected at this time, but it’s always best to have a plan in place.
