  1. Fuck! Turn your thermostats to 60, and bundle up mofos!
  2. As an anecdote, you wouldn't believe how many people around here seem to only own "no-show" athletic socks. Freezing temps, but their ankles are showing when they sit down. And they have a hoodie on with a tee shirt under. This is their cold weather gear.
  3. A lot of Texans don't know how, or aren't willing to wear appropriate clothing for cold weather either. Obviously this weather is not common, but I still have some wool socks, a decent base layer, and an actual winter coat.
  4. Thoughts and prayers. Seriously.
  5. 13° and snow accumulation out the ass! This is some crazy shit round these parts!
  6. Frozen rivers has to be an exceptionally rare event in Texas.
  7. At least when the wolves are eating you alive you would not feel their fangs tearing your flesh away because the frigid cold has rendered you numb. Hopefully.
  8. It's incredible they can withstand those temperatures.
  9. People can't fathom anything but bare feet, shorts, and a tank inside. Instead of putting on something warm, they think they should crank up the heat.
  10. You can do this with mice as well...
  11. I thought heaters running on natural gas still needed electricity to operate. Oh well, I still like the idea of having the ability to burn wood to keep from freezing inside my house if necessary.
  12. Sounds cool, but how does it blow the heat in while still allowing the smoke to go out the chimney?

    Eggs

    Eggs in the basket are my go-to breakfast. Have some bacon or sausage on the side if you like. https://www.delish.com/cooking/recipe-ideas/a32292159/eggs-in-a-basket-recipe/
  14. Word. Drinking Bud Light is rough.
  15. Every home should have a fireplace, or wood burning stove in case the power goes out in freezing weather.
  16. Don't you know it never gets cold in Texas?
  17. Widespread 30+ mph gusts when trees are covered in ice and/or snow will cause power outages on a frightening scale.
  18. The forecast continues to show even colder temps.
  19. Don't forget to check your cold water heater as well.
  20. Google's telling me it's gonna be colder than yesterday. This is definitely looking like one for the record books. 5 fucking degrees in Austin?!?
  21. Are you suggesting we burn our couches?
  22. Native Texan born in '79. Both parents native Texans. I say soda. I'm not calling Dr. Pepper or Sprite a Coke. Oh, and it's cold and wet as fuck. Icicles forming in 78744.
  23. Yikes, Google is saying a high of 27, and low of 11 with a 70% chance of snow on Monday in Austin. I can't remember it ever getting that cold here.
  24. Lost Boys?
  25. Here's a view from the construction cam tonight. I think the Longhorn tunnel looks pretty badass.
