The week before last, temperatures in many U.S. states fell to record lows. As Interfax reports, Texas was the most severely affected, more than 4.4m people were left without power, and there were casualties. Extreme weather conditions prompted significant changes in people’s lives, but they try to keep their spirits up. For you we rounded up photos which will show how cold it is now in Texas, whose inhabitants are not accustomed to such weather.
1. Left the faucet dripping to keep the pipes from freezing. It didn’t work out. Taylor, Texas
2. Probably the best picture I have ever taken of Mops. She enjoyed the Texas snow today!
3. Going to the restroom in Texas today (Real pic from a house in Dallas)
4. They’re spraying down the car wash near us and it’s forming HUGE icicles
5. My Mother in Texas made some incredible octopus Art out of the snow to bring some light into the dark times

We hope that the situation in Texas will be normal soon, and its inhabitants will go back to their usual life.
