Even those of us in Texas who lost power for only two days are now having to replace major appliances that did not survive. Also lost nearly all of our landscaping, including many trees. Very hard on the seniors who comprise about one-third of this area. There's no flexibility in the budget for these catastrophic losses, and we're learning that homeowners insurance won't cover most of it. We're on our own. Glad to have survived the very low temps inside our homes, which were built to withstand heat but not super-cold temps.
