Saw TX, freeze and knew exactly what happened. Amazing how loopholes and corner cutting shows its ugly head when things get a bit abnormal. Up here you would never find water in a radiator or a shallow water pipe going into someone’s house. I grew up in east tx and only remember 1 time we got snow.

Got that right. You can't hire a plumber or buy a plumbing fixture or a piece of copper pipe to save your life from Central Texas southward right now. Our houses are definitely not built for that kind of cold.

You probably also remember that you can lay a pipe on the ground, sprinkle some dust on top and it won't freeze -- in an ordinary winter!
