>>This extreme cold isn’t just in the Panhandle or North Texas, where it can happen (but not for this long) most winters. This time, it extends all the way to the Rio Grande and the Gulf of Mexico. The coast is even under a winter storm warning tonight.<<

We have been chipping ice here for three days. I know about ice and snow but I use gas heat. Don't cry.

I use gas heat, too.

You do realize that electricity powers the blower that distributes that heat through your house??

Unless you’re referring to space heaters, of course, which do the job quite well.

I’m fine, just fed up with ignorant remarks from people who ought to know better.

We use gas heat too and it’s gas that’s the problem as a result of the electricity issues in TX. So not only is Mexico needing to rescind the offer to take care of their own, but TX and NM states that normally don’t get these issues are struggling badly.
