That's what you get for years of pumping oil and burning it! My American uncle had a milkman with a V8 Chevy 454 delivery truck! Sounds like payback time!

Once again those "poor" people having to follow a crocodile queue to collect something using their vehicles with the engines running when all they needed was to park up and be given a running number to collect their water.

So
hot weather = climate change
cold weather = climate change

I lived in Houston area some years ago and can tell you this is not the first snow they have had, they are just not prepared for it, short memories. The ever hunger for electricity is causing this and a poorly configured utility supply. Pity the poor owners of Teslas wouldn’t be doing too much mileage right now, and given that Houston is designed around the motor car it’s not as though you can walk to pick up essentials. Just highlights that we all take electricity for granted.
