    Storm Watch failed us again [in MA, Late July 2021]

    Thanks, and no problem on the name. :-) I actually have written Tesla. I haven't gotten a reply. It's interesting that the solution that everyone is pushing is something that I did, albeit not successfully. Before Henri, and this time on Monday, I did up my reserve to 100%. However, it was...

    Storm Watch failed us again [in MA, Late July 2021]

    Wanting Storm watch to work at all in severe and damaging weather is hardly wanting it to be perfect. And my area is no more prone to power outages than it is prone to being hit by tropical storm Henri or this current nor'easter. So, at this point, we've had 3 big storms, and Storm Watch hasn't...

    Storm Watch failed us again [in MA, Late July 2021]

    This is the 3rd storm in the past few months, including Henri, where we've lost power and Storm Watch was never activated. After the last 2 storms it activated on the sunny, beautiful day following the storm. And this is all to be considered "far from perfect." It sounds like some here think I...

    Storm Watch failed us again [in MA, Late July 2021]

    It really doesn't matter to me if NWS knows what's happening here. We have 300,000 people without power here. If this is the trigger that Tesla is using, then their system is worthless. Perhaps they should use humans. Perhaps they should let people report weather emergencies themselves. There...

    Hurricane season? Tesla Solar is not ready [because owners can not charge from the grid on demand]

    Storm Watch failed us again [in MA, Late July 2021]

    I might add that this is the current headline on CNN: As nor'easter drenches the East Coast, thousands have lost power and high winds threaten more outages By Monica Garrett, Jason Hanna and Dave Hennen, CNN Updated 5:12 AM ET, Wed October 27, 2021 And still Tesla hasn't activate Storm Watch...

    Storm Watch failed us again [in MA, Late July 2021]

    During the last 2 storms, including Henri, Storm Watch activated the DAY AFTER the storm, which isn't useful at all. Today, we're in the 2nd day of a Noreaster in Massachusetts which was even forecast as a front page headline on CNN a couple of days ago, and still no Storm Watch. There are a...
