Wow, I had no idea it had gotten _that_ cold down there. I've never seen it that cold here in the PNW - west of the Cascades, anyway.

Denver Metro was -15F the other day. Though they are built for it, unlike Austin. This cold snap is having a fun time with the whole middle of NA.

That’s rough. I’ve bundled up without power with little ones for 4 day, but it was mid 20’s. Keep warm however you can, safely...and good luck, don’t wait and cross fingers, take action.
