YouTube Description
as posted by the channelTexas Governor Greg Abbott issued disaster declarations for more than half the counties in the state ahead of a powerful winter storm.
The Electric Reliability Council of Texas issued a weather watch with the possibility of higher electrical demand and the potential for lower reserves, but expects power supplies to be ample.
