Let me explain why this Texas situation is so bad, so much worse than many people think and why the flooding-will-ruin-homes-thing makes this catastrophic...
When a home floods, normally you call the "flooded home" guys, they bring massive fans, pull out wet carpet, tear out wet drywall, and in about 2 to 4 days, your house is dry. You can then repair it and move on with your life.
If you can't do that because, say, the "Flooded home" guys are all busy, or there are not enough drying fans, or you don't have resources to do it... and if you live in a warm climate, within 3 days everywhere that is wet will turn to mold.
Then adjacent moist areas will turn to mold. If it is wet enough, the home may require gutting. Or the home may require being totally torn down. Or, if Apartment building, demolished.
The question on the table is: How many homes/apartment buildings/ businesses are now soaked with water?

We can calculate how many of those will be ruined for no way to dry them fast enough.

Consider tens of thousands of ruined homes. Or a hundred thousand.
Or more. Bizs, apartments, homes, all ruined, with no one to fix them. Sitting rotting, smelling.

Even if YOU had a generator, turned off water, saved your home, your entire neighborhood could be devastated destroying the value of your home.

This is Catastrophic disaster.
The question is: How many homes are now flooded?

That would give us a better idea of the problem. But right now, we just do not know that answer.
If we act quickly to move 1000s of people & fans there, we could save many homes.

This is a time-sensitive situation.

Just as I warned in Feb 2020 that every HOUR we did not mask and distance, 1000s or tens of 1000s would die & no one listened,

this, too,very time-sensitive.
Every home we can save, that's a half a million dollars.

Every Apartment building we can save.... millions.

We have precisely 6 days (3 more days of cold, 3 days until mold wins).
