Frozen roads in Texas
Burgess COMMENTARY
Canada and the northern tier of States in the USA are acustomed to cold weather in the winter, but not so much Texas as the Southern States. A period of really cold weather in Texas in 2020 created havoc with a big part of the electric grid failing, and again in 2022 another cold snap disrupted everything for a couple of days. Better than the previous year ... but still it created a lot of disruption.
The new normal. We will have to get used to it!!!!!!
