yeah, everyone i know has 56 gallons of water laying around
Water was freely available leading up to the freeze. 10 minutes flowing into a bathtub would have provided all that was needed to make it through.

If you are legitimately concerned, I live a county over. They can come get as much of my tap water as they want.

So you are telling me your tub is and has been full of water for the last week?

To be fair, I fill my bathtub up for every hurricane, but I didn’t think it was necessary for this. I ended up melting snow to have water to flush my toilet.

I have a son in The Woodlands and power was out and he had water.......in a few areas in his house. It was 50 degrees inside the house and some pipes did freeze, then burst.

I'd just eat snow. I might do that anyway.
