HOUSTON – Even if some roads in the area are clear, the conditions outside on Monday night were bitter cold and many people were without power.
“This has been the coldest it’s been for a good while,” said Pearland resident Tilman Walker III.
After losing power around 5:30 p.m. Monday, Walker went outside to a car to charge his phone. He said he’s prepared to get through the night.
“We’ve got plenty of quilts, blankets, we’ve got plenty of stuff,” he said.
Not far away, Terrance Marsh left his home to search for a hotel room. He lost power around 7 a.m. on Monday.
