Bunch of places going under boil orders as water plants shut down. Another snow/ice storm on the way. Grocery stores and pharmacies are without power in our area. Trucks not able to deliver.
Thankfully We have a stocked survival pantry with food and water and filtration if needed. Biggest concern is temp and making sure area elderly and those with little ones aren’t freezing indoors and are staying hydrated with bottled water in the dry, cold air.
What’s frustrating is that this could have entirely been avoided if state leaders had listened to many who were warning them about the grid. It’s entirely possible to be self sufficient. Winterize, winterize, winterize. Spend the money on improvements.
Growing up in MO, we are used to ice and snow. Not everyone is, and while folks should always be prepared, this is a new level of cold and ice for many. Easy to quarterback from warm rooms and comfy seats, so let grace lead on this and help where you can.
Keep TX and those affected in your prayers ... more coming. Stay safe and keep warm as much as possible, folks.
