Temperatures are dropping in central and south Texas Thursday through Friday morning as the state sees a cold front that may send temperatures plummeting as low as 18 degrees Fahrenheit (minus-8 degrees Celsius) in the Permian Basin on Thursday. These unusually chilly temperatures come just before the one-year anniversary of a historic winter storm that left stretches of the state without power for days—and could be a big test for the electric grid and natural gas supply.
Any Texans here? I hope your pipes don't freeze again.

It's supposed to get down to 14 here in Abilene. In this area, we didn't really have problems until it got down closer to 0 last time. We've already had a couple of 15-16 degree nights lately with no issues that I've heard about. Out West in the Permian Basin as it states may have problems. They're not used to that kind of cold. ERCOT says they have the system winterized this time. I hope they're not full of shit.

the windmills suck up the warm air and turn it into socialism, which is then fed intravenously to alexandra ocasio-cortez and makes her even more powerful
