I bet all those delusional right wingers in TexASS are now regretting their "free market" solutions to weather problems.

Funny is right. Texas IS the posterchild for what self-sufficient / green energy looks like...not so pretty is it, that is unless you like to ignore general maintenance and inclement weather preparedness in your facility.

Try this cool trick, fill your radiator with just water in MN, and see how long your engine block lasts. If you do this, you might be stupid....regardless of party affiliation.

Just remember that TX problems are primarily with the natural gas and coal generation. Wind/solar a small percentage of the mix, and actually on the first bad day there was more wind power than expected in spite of the down wind generators. Green energy was NOT the problem here.

I really hope that the buffet blimp takes your advice. I really do hope he does...

None of this conversation means diddly squat if you live in NYS especially Upstate NY. It does not matter what color your energy supplier looks like when you get hit with a foot of ice and snow. S**t will happen just like it does every winter. All I can say to you folks in Texas.. welcome to the party. If you have natural gas service to your house invest in a top of the line on demand generator. If you don't have natural gas the old fashioned wood stove will keep you warm.

And what where the root causes of those problems....gotta look deeper. I explained it in very simple terms with the radiator analogy; I know with certainty, that you understand the real why...mechanically speaking. To save others from researching....


Officials for the Electric Reliability Council of Texas, which manages most of Texas’ grid, said the primary cause of the outages Tuesday appeared to be the state’s natural gas providers. Many are not designed to withstand such low temperatures on equipment or during production.

Might be? Correction: would be.

Luckily Minnesotans are smart - they believe in government regulation in order to promote the common welfare thereby making a better and more wholesome society. This unlike the morons in TexASS who believe that the magical market solves everything from power shortage to the heartbreak of psoriasis.

Imagine being a TX resident whose surname happens to be Ercot, really.

A hate filled comment. wrote the same to AOC ( I get her emails) pointed out that my nephew and partner are HER consistuants, keep up the good work regarding "kitty" (gamestop).....BUT....knock off the ignorant Texas getting what they deserved. Lots of family in Texas. Including the parents of my nephew. Niece, with new child, just moved to Texas , as well. Why the bigotted statement regarding fellow human beings? guess Congresswoman Ocasio-Cortez doesn't care about the "undocumented, so to be citizens" in Texas , either?

like you? what a pretend.\

When is the climate getting warming? CO2 causes WARMTH. science. oh, right.......increased invariable intermentent extreme weather patterns....because the earth started in 1850 (when USA weather records started.

any cattle punching stories of lore about losing massive heads due to......wait for it. A snow storm?

It IS ok to be callous on this website, I need to fit in better ......

Silly Rabbit, excess co2 causes whatever calamities the environmental fruit loops say it does. Never question them, just blindly believe everything they tell you. They are the ONLY people that understand the science. At least that is what they want us all to believe. I am one of the few willing to publicly state that they are all full of buffalo bagels.

I wonder if caring, liberal type folks cheered with glee at the plight of their fellow neighbors and US citizens. especially in NYC and at the yacht club. Lest alone the cows

It IS nice when people offer SOLUTIONS to energy outages. Family in Texas has never lost power. Of course, they are in a wealthy area.

It appears it is the "newer" residential areas that are hit the hardest.

Time for more fear porn, SKI AREAS closing b/c of no snow "news" stories.

what are folks basing the claims of "increased" severe weather events? and, what makes one think weather is "severe" ? I love going out fishing , especially when it IS blowing above 20 knots. Do others consider this "severe" weather? small craft "advis- roserrary" is just that : advice.

Hey buddy, how many people lived in Kansas that year and what was the population of the largest city? Other than farming, what industry was there? Please compare and contrast it to Texas 2021.

weather happens...........no matter how many people are living, farming, industrying.......

you have posted many videos, n the past, explaining how the earth is getting warmer. WARMER. (the reason why you posted the Indian power plant/glacier story

find it bizarre that people move to WARM climates, based on so many different scales-methodologies, ( I like Koppens and Burpee. USDA zones are great too

shall we use AFAN's way back machine

great bass line if you single it out and play......

It ain’t the weather buddy....its the impact the weather has on the people and the local and national economies....you didn’t answer my questions.

[Brooklyn]

drama queens in Texas, please with this fear porn. dude, if you need juice to survive IE the crying daughter b/c dad is using power in car blah blah blah....to bad, so sad. If it were my charge, would make sure the person I cared for, living with me, had TWO backup systems to power dads stuff. INstead, you binged watched....perhaps burn all the Prime boxes for heat?

brookie, what a silly, silly person. Minnesota is garbage. Amy K. gave us George Flyod. government at it's best.

And this guy accuses me of making hate filled comments.


In case you didn't know it, the weather here is far colder than it is in TexASS but, thanks to the government, our infrastructure has everything under control.

George Floyd? Your pals in TexASS gave us Charles Joseph Whitman, Micah Xavier Johnson, murderous cops who make Minneapolis cops look like liberals, and your heroes in that state cannot exist without all the welfare they get from Washington DC.

TexASS is the poster child for dependency on Washington DC while claiming to be so free and "independent". No state has more corporate welfare queens or has had a governor threatening secession on the grounds that it cannot withstand federal intervention in it. Then when it gets bailed out because of its debt, it bites the hand that feeds it by continuing to vote rePUKEblican. Anybody who denies that is full of squat. Indeed, to quote you, "stupid....regardless of party affiliation''.
