You can collect snow from your yard in cooking pots and boil it down, add more snow, boil down more - - snow melt can be some of the the cleanest water on the planet. Also, get every bucket and pail in your garage and start packing them with snow to melt down - - this is your "raw" water you will be using to flush toliets.

That's at the state level. This is on your governor not the federal level. Texas is not regulated by the federal commission for power companies You can blame your Republican governmental leaders for that and your Republican congressman and senators.
I just love corporate governance, all profits to shareholders all costs to the people. I feel sorry for the people of Texas but they need to rethink the costs of civilization and run the state for the people of Texas and not the CORPORATIONS THAT OWN THE GOVERNMENT. We the PEOPLE in order to form a more perfect UNION!!!
Plumbers, HVAC, Electricians, Roofers, PPE Co's, Bezos, Chinamart-Walton's, Planned notParenthood, Costco. But nearly 60% of Small Businesses, Restaurants Permanently Closed.
What about water to wash hands, take bath ,brush teeth ,cook, wash dishes. Roger's TX 76569 4 days not water city fault for not informing not answer calls
They have to make sure that the water is safe to use. So water safety & testing a must. Then all the pipes bursting, all over the place and as it thraws out. They need a few planes full of professionals from all over, to get that place back up and running! in a jippy! We're in this together, Love you Texas!!!!! ❤ 🌎
it will be a hell of a lot longer than days if pipes burst inside homes, apt buildings, businesses. that all has to be replaced. So if you aint in line waiting for a plumber now u better get off ur ass. Can u imagine all the insurance claims?
Media said to drip that water 5 drops per minute... whomever told them to say that needs to be fired. The water company could have delivered water in advance through the churches/organizations that provide food and warned them to prepare a week in advance, not "drip your water" after it happens because they are clueless about more than a day or two in advance about the weather.And did nothing to prepare for the people... and what will they get in return? More bills???? WE need AMERICAN COMPANIES taking care of TEXAS' needs!

Why is there no help from the government?
No water for days?! The federal government needs to fly in supplies yesterday. People are dying.
cap
Were the hell is Biden? Think he'd get emergency food, water, ect to them. I'm pretty sure military heavy vehicles could get thru.
@@moniquefleming3738 - Sure blame Biden but applaud Cruz for flying off to Cancun for a vacation in the Sun😂🤣.
Were you alive to witness the gov't response for hurricane Katrina? You are on your own.....

The real thing that sucks is all the people who will have to pay for water and electricity despite not having any for days on end
Due to sm art meters
who would of thought putting your pipes literally on the exterior of your house might be a bad idea
😂
Texans don't get cold weather. At least, not since the last time...
Surround those with hay bales. Adobe bricks might help too. Styrofoam. Anything
As long as the water stays moving it shouldn't matter
@@coreymonday1375 I hope you never leave your tropical paradise. Winter would blow your mind.
Socialize the losses , privatize the profits.
Lol. My apartment locked the gates so nobody would take the pool water. Still no running water.
We need help

its amazing they did not aggressively wrap pipes...
wrap underground pipes?
"We don't know, what we don't know". Well it's your job to know Greg Meszaros. Fire this fool! He's clearly grossly incompetent.
Yep the truth remains painful... yeah....
And Ted Cruz takes a trip lol
What does that have to do with the climate?
Where is Biden at? His basement.
lol that water heater mounted on the exterior of the house.
It's the south
@@ricardibutler2024 It sure is!
@@ricardibutler2024 My water heater is inside in Florida.
Very Common
SAVE THE WATER !!!!!!!!
They need to fly over Austin with one of those giant sea planes. Problem solved. You’re welcome. 😌
