Default A Texas experience to share

So, I figured some here might find this humorous....

Last week we had a few days below 32 F..... while in the North we are used to counting the days below 32F, in Texas they keep track of the hours below 32F.... after about 12 hours it becomes a news worth issue....

What is horrible is that many of the reasons people get concerned here are easily preventable.... They don't bury city water deep enough, some places are less then 1' .... in some cases people have plumbing in the attic... And well of course they all need to invest in at least 1 proper winter coat.....

That was last week.... this week 70F, with overnights in the high 40F
