Southeast Texas?

If it ever got that cold here, we wouldn't have power for a year. Maybe your power people need to call our power people and explain how to keep the electricity on below freezing:)
i think the power people that are out climbing the poles doing repairs around here would be doing the work in shorts down there.
pretty darn cold last week( -14 at 8 am wednesday morning) and i saw some workers up some power poles doing repairs.
TONS of respect for them.
 
The problem with the roads was ice under the snow. We got freezing rain and sleet first, then it snowed on top of 1/4" of ice. The temperature didn't get above freezing for 4 days after that, and our road crews don't really have the equipment to clear the roads. Power outages were a big problem, but there are lots of people with no water still, and houses that are messed up from busted pipes.
 
How far does the trouble go? Have parts from canada that finally made it to Memphis fed ex on Friday and the only update since Saturday is no clue on delivery.
 
well it's staring to trickle out slowly . the fools who run the power down here do not live in texas . they are part of the progressive green new deal bunch .
we had plenty of power but they shut down power plants to push those damn wind farms which failed miserably . you cant just switch a power plant back on . by the time it came back on line the freeze would be over . hopefully our legislators follow through with getting rid of all of them . people died because of those clowns . folks need to wake up and prepare for things like this . i could chainsaw the poles off my place , weld the gate shut and be fine for at least a year .

We pay somewhere around a million a year in shipping charges and have never seen anything like this.
What was one day is now 2 to 4 with pallets?
Ground shipping at least an extra day.
One drum resin was shipped to me from Ohio last Friday; I hope I get it today, before one to two days max.
 
there is a serious shortage of drivers . i know a man who owns a transport co and he has on average 10 trucks setting idle. he tried the foreign visa crap and ended up with a bunch of tore up trucks. i've noticed ups is leasing trucks a lot. fedex is using garbage contractors .
