Texas is currently experiencing some of the coldest weather it has seen in decades and the pictures coming out from the state show how bad things are. The state, the people, and the infrastructure just aren't set up for it.
1. The highways are full of snow:
2. Icicles are hanging from ceiling fans:
3. It's so cold that people's faucets are frozen:
4. Pools have literally turned into skating rinks:
5. Hot tubs too:
6. People's toilets are freezing:
7. Frozen toilets!
8. I never thought I'd see the day:
9. Dish soap is freezing:
10. Olive oil is freezing:
11. That's a frozen fish tank:

17. Highways are unusable:
18. Water fountains are freezing:
19. Beaches have snow:
20. And car washes have turned into modern art pieces:
21. It's not good!
22. I mean, there's ice all over the cacti!
23. People fortunate to have homes in the first place are camping out in their living rooms:
24. This person's hallway is basically a skating rink:
25. Other people are waking up to their pipes bursting:
26. Here's an indoor waterfall caused by a pipe burst in Denton, Texas:
27. And here's an outdoor balcony waterfall in Dallas:
28. The videos are truly surreal:
29. But at the end of the day, Texans are doing everything they can.
30. People are helping each other in any way they can.
32. Stay safe out there!

andrewj83Texas took themselves off the national power grid. So they could deregulate (typical republican thinking). No regulations mean less prepared for winter.
