I feel good after reading your posts after just complaining to my son it would get down to 60 one night here this, with the high being 86 this week.
Somehow this does not surprise me. LOLHowever I was prepared as usual...
We had two days @ 15 degrees here . Last Time I experienced a teen temp of 17 degrees I was 17 in Baytown Texas 1989 . Read where we were colder than Alaska currently . South Texas is not tooled up for this at all . However I was prepared as usual , and only repaired broken plumbing of neighbors .
We own no snow blowers / plows / sand trucks / salt trucks . They do have chemicals for the bridges , but they last for one day not 6 , and we didnt have enough of it . Today was my first day back to work . Most places have been closed . Commercial buildings are flooded from damage / broken pipes .
Has this weather condition ever happened before in these areas of Texas?26f this morning . Last hard freeze day for us . I'll share some photos later .
I wasn't sure if this was something that happened from time to time.....Not this long in South Texas Bill .
Now one more night in the news for us .
28 tonight then back on 50s and 66 Sunday.
Lots of ice on roads this morning.
I know this is nothing compared to the North but it would be like you guy's experience 100 percent humidity while hitting 102 degrees F . Hard to deal with .

Hi. I did have a -20 degree sleeping bag +a fleece liner. I have a camp 1.5 miles in the woods by the pond little Quittacas look it up on Wikipedia. I do not like camping in a trailer. I like sleeping on the ground # 1 and then a tent # 2, but the ground is best.Hi glad your are OK! The coldest I ever stayed outside in a tent was -14.
I can't remember the last time I went camping in a civilian setting...Hi. I did have a -20 degree sleeping bag +a fleece liner.
