No power. Don’t know if it’s part of rolling blackout or down power lines. Neighbor said they don’t have water and looks like we don’t either. Fireplace in Gameroom works, so that’s where we are. Everything covered in snow, which is weird for Houston. Power company app says TV and internet out until at least 2:15 this afternoon.

Currently -3 with a wind chill of -15 so it's getting better. Next week it's supposed to finally get in the 30s.

Abilene Texas no power for 4 hours and out of firewood. Hot Faucets on one side of the house frozen. They say we are going into rolling outages.

Good luck out there.

This won't help but needs to be seen. Wait until we get our power bills.

...... we hit the proverbial offerless market where any natgas that was available would be purchased at virtually any price, which is why midcontinent prices such as the Oneok OGT nat gas spot exploded from $3.46 one week ago, to $9 on Wednesday, $60.28 on Thursday and an insane $377.13 on Friday, up 32,000% in a few days....

Two nights ago in a small part of NYC, water mains were shutoff to avoid frozen pipes.

DEP came at like 9pm at night I watched the trucks, they shut the main and about ten minutes later neighbors were noticeably upset.

people saying running water doesn't freeze, but it can

My daughter sent me a picture of her -1 degree in Colorado and my sister said it was snowing Pennsylvania.
82 here in south Florida so I sent them this

ha
so you're the problem SSDiver2112 why travel restriction must be imposed from the camala b!teme junta.

Just think of all the illegal alien's getting their first stimulus check shoveling snow for the first time.

it is official, a climate change gas arrived out my front door, there is a road out there, suppose to get a little more yet, then more of the same on wed.

Don't miss it one little bit. I only love snow in pictures.

I'm all for the border protection to keep you cold lovers out. Maybe a wall between Florida and Georgia will be the next idea...

Its up to a scorching +2 with a -13WC. Almost balmy. More snow expected Tues-Wed. Sweet.

 

[Poolmanis]

between -10celcius and -33 celsius last three weeks. snow about 2 foot. Normal weather here. Little less snow than normal.

I had foot long icicles this morning. Then the sun came out and the 3/4" of ice over snow started sliding off roofs. It sounded like a war zone outside.
Still only 34 degrees but all the sun facing icicles disappeared in about 30 minutes.

84f yesterday in Miami... Back in MN today, not so much. Currently at 0. It's warmed up since -20 degrees this morning.

Still no power as of this writing. 2.7 million in Texas without power, with 1.2 million of those living in the Houston area. Power Plants that generate the power that the Electric Companies purchase and sell to us consumers are still offline. Rumor is a formal investigation will take place when all of this is over.

In some places the grid cannot keep up with demand. Rolling outages are happening here in Okla. too. When the reserve drops to certain amount the rolling cutbacks kick-in automatically. Pretty good explanation: https://www.wfaa.com/article/weathe...ions/287-554d28ba-a8a9-4213-a08a-7c436ad8b59a

Crook, Colorado dipped to -33° actual temp, not wind chill.

Places that never see snow, sadly, don't have infrastructure to handle it.
Four inches of snow can cause weeks of recovery, especially to the power distribution system.
