Hope there are no ing rolling blackouts again. Had that happen in 2011 when it got to 18 one morning and of course no one should ever forget Feb 2021.
Just turned Thursday in San Antone and wow, it's going to be a radical drop on Thursday night to 20 degrees or so.
Stay safe everyone. Hope you did the basics like keep your house pipes from cracking. Fill up your cars gas tanks just in case.
Is the city or county opening up any gyms etc that people without can flee to?

It isn't going to stay cold that long, tomorrow being the worst of it. Hopefully there's minimal power issues. It'll be back up in the 70s by next weekend.
At least they aren't predicting any precipitation.
San Antonio afraid of a few hours of cold weather.
More like Greg Abbot and Rick Perry ensuring our power grid fails if there is any cold weather. We had five days of rolling blackouts from temperatures in the 20s in 2021.
What became of that dooshebag?
It's going to be around freezing or below most of the time from about 6PM today until maybe noon Saturday. Had rolling blackouts in 2011 just from it being cold half a day.
Blowing into East Texas now. Lots of wind. Temps set to drop like 25 degrees over the next couple hours. Low of 10 degrees tonight
I'm afraid of Texas power grid holding on for a few hours under 20 degrees
Not gonna happen, but wouldn't you guys like to see Hot Wheels, Cruz, Perry the whole lot of them made to be outside in this weather?
San Antonio can't afford an Xmas trip to Cancun.
24 here already...20 degrees in two hours
LOL we were at 63 about an hour ago. Now 40.
Its not going to be above freezing again until Saturday afternoon. Grid will get tested for sure.
My friend in Colorado was warned the storm had dust associated with it that was to be avoided.
He was driving in his car, took a picture of his temperature gauge 43F, and then a picture of the Huge wall of dust.
Fifteen minutes later after he broke through the dust storm he took a picture of the temp gauge in his car... 6 F
37 degree drop in 15 minutes.
He said it was recommended that they check a lot of their equipment at the ranch because the materials are not made to experience drops that quick. Ie dont freeze dry your tractors and such. I am glad I am in San Antonio. I am NOT glad Abbott can lie so easily in Texas . "Everything is winterized..." No. No its not.
58F to 40F in about three hours, not quite as drastic.
Differences definitely depend on where your temp device is and what kind it is.
lol I've been out all day, every time I've gotten out of the car this afternoon the temperature has noticably dropped. The wind is pretty brutal right now. I'm sure there will be some downed power lines tonight.
True. And considering nothing has been done to the grid since 2021, anything is possible.
72 here.
63 to 31 in about two hours, starting to think the forecast low of 18 is too conservative
19 and dropping here
Jesus this wind is pretty painful right now. Regardless of the temperature, it's going to feel a of a lot worse.
Wait until about 7AM when the wind chill will be around zero
How does Abbott's FWB Gretchen Whitmer do it then? It's going to snow the whole next month in Michigan and be mostly freezing temperatures throughout each January and February. How do they manage to have power and internet?
14 degrees here
