    I saw one guy with boot chains. He was doing good with those.

    Texas tornado track | khou.com

    The tornado was only a few miles south of us.

    If you're interested, click the link, & check the graphic with the arrow showing the path of the hurricane (it doesn't show the complete path). We're near Hobby.

    Edit: The damage is extensive. Thankfully, and amazingly, no deaths have been reported.

    Super cold for the PNW. No precip for a few days.
    Hope to escape snow.

    Our nasty weather has been pushed back a day, the below freezing temps are now forecast for Mon night.

    Did the greedy assholes who are ERCOT actually make the necessary improvements to the Texas grid? A warning system to tell us when usage is threatening to overwhelm output isn't the type of improvement I'm talking about.

    I just got an email from puget sound energy (gas) saying thanks reducing usage.

    Ted Cruz booked a flight yet ?
    Maybe someone can sell him a seat next to one of those windows

    Cancun Cruz learned his lesson. This time he slipped out of state two days ago with Ken Paxton.

    Yes, before the last killer freeze our Attorney General, the person who is supposed to protect Texas consumers, left the state a couple of days before the freeze hit. We never heard a peep from him, or Abbott, about going after ERCOT; in fact he defended ERCOT as an official state agency (they're not).
