Yeah but you guys are equipped to deal with it. Texans only have their cowboy boots and hats and their giant belt buckles to fight it. They will probably have to retreat back to The Alamo like Rohan to Helm's Deep.

People keep saying this, but the reality is that the storm is significantly less than what people up north deal with and the snow will go away on its own within a week.

Saying "we don't have the infrastructure" very much ignores that there is also a very dramatic difference in the severity of the weather.

Having one that's prepared for literally any amount of snow and ice is better than one that not prepared for any amount ever.

There's no denying that the severity is drastically different, but that was already a given.

It doesn't matter how quickly it goes away if it's going to kill people and cause billions of dollars in damage and economic loss while it's happening.

Yo everyone hates it when someone from some shit state/country like Minnesota or Michigan or Canada talks about how much snow they get compared to other places. Everyone already knows you get a lot of snow. That's why no one wants to go there.

You do know that beer's freezing point isn't that low? Your likely to have the beers explode / crack if it gets down near zero.

This isnt a natural disaster like a hurricane or an earthquake. Making fun of something like that would be shitty. But this is a snow storm.

I never considered this topic against the ToS, so I wasnt understanding the problem with this topic in that regard.

I do disagree with this though. Getting extreme weather in places it is rare and causes power outages or is ill-equipped to handle it for people to function normally is a natural disaster. Not causing destruction but severe problems for people caused by weather is a disaster. Its just semantics though, I wouldnt argue its taking the definition literally vs general accepted thoughts of disaster.

Ironic, the first example picture under that wiki article is a Blizzard in Maryland

pesronally i love the cold. it was -1 last night and believe it or not i rather enjoyed it. i wouldnt mind camping in this weather, obviously it'd be a bitch but i enjoy a challenge. if i could give my power to one of the millions in texas who are suffering right now i would do it in a heartbeat.

Cold is different with the humidity there and especially if your used to 70 degree temperatures
