“Isn’t that what happened in Texas last year?”

What are you referring to? Maybe the wimpy hurricane that taught Texas that it’s good to keep trees away from power lines? The Big Freeze was 4 years ago and mainly due to the loss of power to natural gas pumping stations which had been forced by the feds to change over to electric power where they had been using their own natural gas to power the pumps.
