The polar vortex's southward movement was a huge issue back in 2014 as I recall, especially for the mid-Atlantic. I remember it being close to 0 F with wind chills of -10 or -20 below zero, then the power went out for like 10 hours. Luckily I remembered to keep the faucets leaking as to help prevent busted pipes, but that was a pretty scary evening regardless.
Look at these forecasted lows for tonight. Below zero for like 20% of Texas.

Yep, they’ve been rolling black outs all day. grid wasn’t set up for the cold weather demand
The news conference I just listened to with the "Judge" from Dallas county said they still can't rotate the blackouts between customers. Man, I would be soooooo fucking pissed.
