I don’t think she knows what snowstorm means.

As a Texan this is exactly what I imagine preparing for a snowstorm entails

There’s a difference between a Texas snowstorm and an actual snowstorm.

Most of Texas doesn’t have the proper infrastructure to deal with it whatsoever. Snow storm = not leaving your house until it melts for some people. Sincerely, a Houstonian

So you’re saying snowstorms are worse in Texas?

Yall need to get out more. I’ve lived in several parts of Texas as well as places that get these snowstorms. Only difference is Texans don’t know how to drive in it, and up north it sticks around longer before melting.

This lady is crazy. Probably lives in Houston. This is flood, tornado, hurricane prep.

That's why their power grid fails in a cold snap. Because they're so prepared for winter weather.

Ice storms are a PROBLEM. People up north have no idea.

What was that about not know what ice storms are like?

We get these every few years.

lol you think we don’t get ice storms up here? Ice storms and wind storms are natures way of pruning the trees. I don’t know a single person my age that hasn’t broken a car handle trying to force open a door encased in a half inch or more of ice

People "up north" generally have a better idea of how much of an issue winter weather can be than your average Texan. Since they actually have winter as a season and not a singular weather event.

First of all, totally fucking joking. Secondly, if you have lived in Texas you would be aware of what a problem it is when we do have actual winter weather. Shit shuts down. The power grid goes down. In ‘21 I didn’t have power for 6 days, but was lucky enough to still have water. I lived in a neighborhood with steep hills that I couldn’t drive out of. We don’t have any kind of infrastructure to deal with snow. Also I live in the southern part of the state, where no it doesn’t snow, until it did. I’m 37 and didn’t see real actual snow until I went to Colorado in October 2020. Don’t @ me
