    Right in time for the winter storm, they are talking about costs of electricity and gas going up up up. And, the impact for customers will be felt in future bills...not all at once...but spread across monthly bills to make it seem lighter....lighter in our wallets. That's in addition to whatever this storm is going to cost us.

    Good luck, everybody, in the path of this storm! Don't fail us now, ERCOT.

    Quietest 40"+ vert in NBA history. He has the same dunk package as me and we are the same height.

    Humble ISD has already called Monday. Good call I think.

    But the hoarding water and toilet paper is bizarre...yet predictable. We're talking about 24 hours below freezing - basically Sunday afternoon to Monday afternoon.

    How many dumps are you planning on taking in that 24-hour period??

    The name of this storm is “Fern.”

    Also, I think it may snow about a week from now in Houston. You have been warned!

    Marble Falls HEB was completely sold out of TP, milk and eggs, with minimal bread; as of yesterday afternoon.

    Up here it's 3 days of freeze (~Sat noon to Tues noon) instead of 1, but still...these people are idiots

    Some university PhD student should do a study on the mindset of Houstonians when it comes to panick buying specifically toilet paper, eggs, bread, and milk during any type of inclement weather.

    If I was part of big grocery, I'd pay the weather manipulators good money for these types of storms. Help clear out my shelves.

    Centerpoint and the powers that be need to be on point for this. They know well ahead of time. Hope everyone conserves and stays safe.
