Scattered outages due to wind.

Interesting. The wind wasn't bad here. How does one find the nearest power station? Is that what gets hit?

I think it is usually lines that get damaged. Wind near Brushy Creek and 685 was howling. Was listening to windows rattle and hoping the shingles held.

We had a UPS alarm at 530 for a split second in round rock, then come back up.

Power just sagged did not go completely down.
