Every completed forecast is compared with when power actually returned. As of Aug 29, 10,280 completed outages have been graded this way — median error 1.6 hours across the most recent 600 of them (about 2.6 days), and we publish the misses.

When will my power be back on in Watauga, TX?

How do I check the power outage status in Watauga, TX?

How do I report a power outage in Watauga, TX?

Report it to your electric utility — crews are dispatched from customer reports. Utilities tracked in Tarrant County include CoServ / Denton County EC, Oncor, United Cooperative Services; confirm your own provider, then use its outage line or website. Reporting a downed line helps crews find the fault faster. In a life-threatening emergency, call 911.

Does this page show Watauga specifically, or the whole county?

Both, and for Watauga we have the city-level view: Oncor has published outages for Watauga under its own name, most recently seen on 2026-07-29. When Watauga is affected, you get its own customers-out count and restoration time, with the Tarrant County county-wide total shown separately as context. Don't add the two together — the county figure already includes Watauga.

How accurate is the restoration estimate?

Every estimate is later graded against when the tracked outage was substantially restored (~90% of customers back), and the track record is published on our accuracy page. Estimates firm up a few hours into an outage once a steady restoration trend appears; very small outages are marked "too small to estimate" rather than guessed.
