Making Mealtime Meaningful: Discover how we're giving back with the 12T Cares program →

Winter storms can be extremely difficult to navigate even when you’ve got the infrastructure in place to deal with the amount of snow that comes your way. However, for a state like Texas, a winter storm can spell disaster. And that is what we’re seeing this week after Texas got hit with some incredibly cold weather.

Many residents have been left stranded in their homes without power in freezing temperatures, while others have had to deal with pipes bursting. It’s been a complete nightmare for the people of Texas. Through it all, they have pictures and videos to prove how dire the situation is.

Check out ten of the craziest things happening in Texas below:
