Just saw this weather headline re "fatal storm" on my Youtube feed. They are really playing this up as potentially causing deaths, etc. across a wide swath of the US--extreme Arctic cold plus power outages, icy roads, etc. I don't know what to make of it. Are there any "weather fags" here who know something about it? Shades of Texas storm Valentines 2021. Some Texans froze to death.
I'm in Texas, just about without exception everyone who froze or died in that Texas storm you mention died from utter stupidity. For example, one hispanic non-English speaking family who lost power in their trailer home let their child play in the snow. They had no way to dry him off and warm him up, the child died.... but ask me and Imma say the parents killed him. I mean, damn.
We're expecting the Artic front after the Canadian front and that comes after the Pacific front. Here on the Texas Gulf coast outside Houston I fully expect to be in the teens Thursday night/Friday morning, may be below freezing until Saturday. Most of America likely will be cold and miserable, and there will be power problems, absolutely.
We expect heavy winds with that, so we will see outages for a certainty. Mother Nature will cause problems, but what I also expect is more false flag infrastructure attacks, gas pipelines or something say, because Traitor joe the Pedo wants his damn winter of Death.
So, everyone's mileage will vary. A 'lot' of people are gonna suffer between now and next week, depending on where you are, how you are situated and what your government does to you. We 'think' we are prepared to ride out a week of stupid cold with no power, I hope everyone is.
But in reality people will die, yeah. Darwin is gonna be Right There waiting for some of us.
Merry Christmas.

We were in the ice storm two winters ago. We are ready this time. 13 days without electricity sucked. We are on a well. Luckily we have a fireplace. We boarded up the room and kept the fire going. Not having water sucks. We did fill the tubs but never was there any threat of death. 5 degrees is cold but was manageable.
The worst part was two inches of freezing rain they killed about 50 trees and took down limbs on the north side of all the trees. A mess.
We lost a water line out to the boat dock, power was out for about two days straight then sporadically. But we have a generator and are very experienced at surviving storms of all kinds.
A neighbor has a 2 story house and didn't turn his water off, didn't let faucets drip, when we lost power he was asleep and when he woke he had busted pipes upstairs.
He didn't know until it thawed and he flooded his whole house, it was about 90 thousand to fix and he did it on the cheap. He's from Chicago, moved down here to escape the cold.....
We even told him to turn his water off and drain his lines, but nope.
Good luck, and MERRY CHRISTMAS.

My daughter is flying to Texas a few days after Christmas. Its going to be a big shock to the system for her as she's never seen snow or experienced such cold weather and it's our summer here and we're expecting around 37celcius on Christmas day.
