this is exactly why those “it’s just some snow” jokes are not fucking funny. we get it, but texas doesn’t have the capabilities/infrastructure for this kind of weather. it’s entirely bigger than other states think. i’m gonna post his cash app in the thread pls, anything will help
i noticed in one of his tik toks that the firewood in his area is sold out. if anyone wants to help further or donate some firewood, food, blankets, etc. dm me, i wanna figure out how to help this man and his family.

as far as i know this warming center will only provide water, coffee and snacks. it states if you want meals you have to bring them on your own.
no id is required. i will say though it mentions that it’s not an overnight shelter and no cots are provided.
