As to the weather in TX - I feel sorry for those who have no alternate heat source (wood stove - fireplace) but those who have houses (over those in apartments) should always have plans and preparations for all sorts of emergencies - beyond needing toilet paper. Better to never need them than to need and not have. I've lived in extreme (52 & 54 degrees below zero) weather situations in my early life (late teens with a new baby). At that time I had wood burning alternatives and made use of them. That taught me to always have a wood burning unit to heat and cook on. No one taught me those simple things - it was just common sense in the 50's and 60's. Perhaps this lack of electricity in TX will cause a few folks to PLAN AHEAD instead of relying on government to keep one comfy. Where I live now I have no "other heat source" but you can bet I won't freeze or go hungry. I learned to be self sufficient in my youth and never forgot those lessons.

On Tuesday, a new record was set for the highest percentage of the contiguous 48 states covered with snow. The new record of 73.2% beat the old record of 70.9% set on Jan. 12, 2011. A year ago at this time, snow only covered 35.5% of the contiguous states.
After one of the coldest nights in decades, temperatures in Texas have risen into the teens and 20s for many areas. At 2 p.m. CST Tuesday, the temperature in Dallas was 18 F, more than 40 degrees lower than the average high temperature for mid-February. It was still in the single digits in Oklahoma City after the city bottomed out at -14 F early Tuesday morning. "This is the coldest official OKC temperature recorded since February 12, 1899," the National Weather Service office in Norman, Oklahoma, said. Even in Louisiana, Mississippi, Alabama and Arkansas, residents were bundled up as the icy grip of Old Man Winter chilled the region in the wake of the recent storm.
