How are Texans doing with cold weather? [View all]

I did not lose power but ATT was done in my subdivision since around 3 AM until around 4 this afternoon. It looks like Houston escaped the worse of the freeze but it is not safe to drive. This is from the intersection that I often use to go into town







There will be a hard freeze tonight and tomorrow night. I will be dripping my faucets both nights

My middle child is in Austin which has a ton of ice. She has not lost power and will be working from home tomorrow and Tuesday.

Here is something to cheer up Texans dealing with the freeze






We are not use to these temperatures and so will be staying off the road.
Stay Safe Texans
