Severe Weather for Flower Mound, TX

Lawrence "Larry" & Sheila Agranoff. Cell: 631-805-4400 - it does seem the severe winter storm will impact many people and their properties. 

I hope you stay safe!

Michael Jacobs - this is true! I'm hearing and seeing changes in 2026 that are not becoming, such as more firetruck sirens and vehicle accidents. Through it all, we must stay calm and practice patience whether it has to do with safety or the winter weather. 

I wish you good weather and safety too. May you have a good day.

Brian England - It's too bad your cousin's wedding was impacted with a sudden storm. The same thing happened in Illinois on the day of my daughter's 1st Holy Communion. Warm that morning; blizzard by afternoon. I had reserved a hall at the park, and catered food. Nobody showed up because of the weather because of the icy roads. 

Nina Hollander, Broker - It is a widespread winter storm, and many states will be impacted. By the way, nobody checked on me in 2021. I doubt anyone will this time either. I just have to be prepared and hope for the best. 

Patricia, if you want to take a little trip further south you can come and hang out with us.  We definitely need to check in on you regardless.  Do your kids live close by?  You might end up having it better than us, we are just out in the woods.  We have a generator, but it won’t power the heat.  Hopefully we won’t lose power.  We’ve got my mom one street over.  If we do lose power, we will probably head to a hotel if there are any rooms available

Patricia Feager I get it.

Hi Brenda J. Andrew - My kids do not live in TX. One lives in Switzerland and the other in Wisconsin. The storm is due to hit up there too.

You are so thoughtful and kind. I would love to hang out with you to weather the storm, but I need to stay here in case the pipes freeze. I hope you don't lose power. Being out in the woods sound like you're located in a remote area. If you need to get to a hotel, I hope you find one that doesn't gauge you in price. When I used to travel to Austin, San Antonio, and Galveston for Real Estate Conferences, the rooms to rent were more expensive every year I traveled. The last ones I attended were over $1K because of the number of days I had to stay for being on the TX REALTORS Professional Development Committee's. 

I hope you stay safe and the storm doesn't hit you severely. Take care!

I hope all is well with you Patricia Feager  Are you still with power?

I sure hope so! Thinking of you!!!  

Debra Leisek - all is well. I am thankful I did not lose power, but I am wondering if I just have cold air blowing. My house is very cold indoors.

Brenda J. Andrew - I did go out two days ago to buy more toilet paper and a few other things. But I wasn't thinking about what to buy that doesn't require electricity to use my stove. My microwave was killed during the last electrical storm and I never replaced it. As for the fireplace, I had it serviced in 2022, just in case. But I found out, from an honest service guy who cleaned my fireplace, that the one I have is just a decorative FP and shouldn't be used at all. So, I never tried it, just ended up paying for the services. Why they build my house in 1994 with just a decorative FP and not a real one was really stupid. I was the second owner and never knew until I really needed a functional one, and not a piece of decoration! 

I'll be thinking of you too, Brenda! Stay warm and safe. I need to run out and get more covers for my spigots and something to throw on my flower garden for protection. I'll be going to the grocery store too, looking for choices of what I can think of. At this moment, all I can think of are apples and oranges. 

Carol Williams - I survived but it's still very cold in my house. I can't help but wonder if my heat is out and all it's doing is blowing cold air. I ended up checking into a hotel that is on a hospital grid. The company I use is only going out for emergency services and the price is more. I will wait. 

I'm home now, pipes did not freeze. I left water trickling down through the faucets before leaving. I wasn't on the Internet at the hotel, and this is the first time, I'm on. Our Town asked us to conserve electricity and stay off the internet. 

Thanks for stopping by. 

Wow, Patricia Feager 
I'm sorry you've had to deal with that but at least you are safe and no frozen pipes! I hope your heat gets fixed pronto!

Carol Williams - you and me both! My insurance company does not cover frozen pipes - that's a major expense. Fingers crossed that we warm up here soon. 

Thank you for caring. I hope you're doing well, staying warm and safe. 

Gwen Fowler SC Lakes & Mountains 864-710-4518 - I hate ice too. I stayed in a hotel but now I'm home. Driving home was very treacherous. I was glad I didn't encounter any other cars while I was driving, but then again, if I ran off the road or got in trouble, it would have been nice if someone was around to help. 

I read my local news, and it still advises us to stay off the roads. Stores are closed, schools closed, no mail delivery, everything is closed except for emergencies like Fire and Police. A lot melted yesterday but this morning we were warned don't underestimate the slush and ice that refroze last night. 

I hope you are safe and staying warm.

Thank you. I appreciate you keeping in touch and wish you warmth. 

Wayne Martin - I decided to check into a hotel because the community was suggesting finding warming places. Naw.... I decided on a hotel. I'm home now but I think my furnace is only blowing cold air. No services, unless it's an emergency and the price goes up. 

I'm concerned because I can't get a hold of my son or members of his family up there in Twin Lakes. Hope all is well with you. 

Patricia Feager - Twin Lakes, Wisconsin may have gotten more snow than us. We only got a bit more than 2 inches. As for temps it may feel like zero right now with the wind chill factor @1:45PM central time today.
Did you reach your son? 

Hi Wayne Martin - I heard from my daughter-in-law. She assured me they are fine and all is well there. Whew! That was a sigh of relief for me. Here in Flower Mound, there was enough snow for the kids to find something to sled on and they were having fun. Maybe God makes children immune to the cold and gives them fun instead of the shivers and worries I get as an adult. 

Nick Vandekar, 610-203-4543 - I'd rather have snow than ice. 16" is a lot. I went to the grocery stores before the ice storm and most of the shelves were empty here. Our houses, infrastructure, and roads were not made for this type of cold weather.

I hope your experience is much better. 

Patricia, we had food, stores were pretty well stocked. But, the cold is getting boring now, it so limits what you can do.

Joan Cox, Retired Broker/Owner - It sure is cold! Thank you for caring.

George Souto - That's mighty cold temperatures for you in Connecticut. It feels very cold in my house today. I'm afraid all that's blowing is cold air and no heat. Service companies are not going out unless it's a true emergency for babies, children, and health reasons.

Gloria Todor - It's like a cold and icy ghost town. I hope you're surviving the cold and staying warm. I'm wishing you all the best to get through this wintry weather. 

Kathy Streib - The cold icy weather is not good for my bones or anyone else's either. I am staying safe but concerned about my heat, all I'm getting is cold air. No services unless it's a true emergency and the costs will be more. I checked into a hotel for 3 days but home now and I wish I could have stayed where it was warm. 

Roy Kelley - Severe weather at your ages or any age is very hard on the body. Take care and may you be warm with power to heat. 

Debra Leisek - We had a lot of ice and were told to stay off the roads. I checked into a hotel and now I'm home. Had sunshine yesterday but freezing temperatures during the night. I'm doubtful that I have heat - it feels like cold air. We had snow, kids were sledding - this is the first time many ever saw snow. 

I hope all is well with you too!

Debra Leisek - I did stay at a hotel but now I'm home. The house is very cold.
