We’ve had a total of 4 hours of power in 2 1/2 days. Water is also contaminated across the county as a boil water is in effect. We’ve started taping windows and cardboard to cover the windows. It was 7 degrees last night, and will snow again tonight. #TexasWinterStorm2021
I used to live in Alaska and grew up in Colorado, but never have I experienced such cold with no heat, no clean water, and no food with a 3 1/2 month old baby, my wife, and 5 children - except for when I was homeless and alone. #TexasWinterStorm2021
Thankfully my winter skills from when I was growing up helped. Thanks Mom and Dad for the survival lessons, and thank you to the Native Americans from the Northern Alaskan tribes that trained me when I was 8 years old to survive in these conditions. #TexasWinterStorm2021
A few people in my county have already died. Texas infrastructure was not build to keep out the cold. It was built to keep out the heat and keep the cold in. It’s a scary time right now. #TexasWinterStorm2021
This might be the only time I can write these tweets until Friday, assuming it is all solved by then. If you are a praying person, please pray for us. If you’re not, please keep us in your thoughts. I’m thankful we survived the night. #TexasWinterStorm2021
And I’m hoping I get to make another tweet soon. #TexasWinterStorm2021 #texaspoweroutage #TexasBlackout #TexasFreeze
