Is everyone in Texas ok? Houston had some snow and icy rain on Monday morning. My family in Austin and Dallas told me they had pretty heavy snow. >50% in Houston has been without power for over a day. Water is low too. This is insane. Fortunately, we still have power now. We are looking at another 2-3 days of same weather.

I have power, water, and internet in Dallas. I just don't have hot water.

Tomball, a city north of Houston, has just issued no boil-water notice due to low pressure in the pipes. Water pressure in our house is low too...

When the sun is out you can open your blinds to let in some light and boost room temperature.
Yep! We are doing that now, just to lighten the load a bit for the city although we still have power... We are monitoring the power situation in Houston. Except for a few isolated spots, it looks like the entire Houston is out of power. Hope they fix the power soon... We have 3 more days of this mess. We will have icy rain tomorrow. And temperature will dip well below freezing on Thursday and Friday. So it will be very bad for the next 3 days...
