Cold in Places That Never Planned for It

Thursday, September 10th, 2026 — In the second week of February 2021, a mass of Arctic air settled over Texas and stayed for six days. Temperatures in Dallas fell below zero. Houston stayed below freezing for more than 40 hours straight. The state's power grid, isolated from its neighbors and running generation that had never been winterized, shed load to avoid collapse, and more than four million customers lost electricity, many for days. Inside homes built for 100-degree summers, with water lines run through unheated attics and heat pumps that could not keep up, pipes froze and then burst as they thawed. Texas insurers received more than half a million claims from Winter Storm Uri. Insured losses ran well above $10 billion, the state attributed 246 deaths to the storm, and by claim count it rivaled any catastrophe in Texas history.
