Texas Snowmageddon! Texas Winter Storm 2021 Lessons Learned for Prepping and Comms

Texas Snowmageddon!  Texas Winter Storm 2021 Lessons Learned for Prepping and Comms

This week was the Texas Snowmageddon – The first Winter Storm of 2021 and it was a record-breaking event for weather all across Texas. We saw record lows temps, record snowfall, and record outages of power, water and communications.

What did I learn? What can WE learn from this? Were we not prepared? How can we become more prepared for future events and more Self Reliant?

Tonight I will share my thoughts about this event, the Winter Storm 2021 experiences I had this past week, and how I plan to prepare for them next time. Your input and thoughts are welcome!
