To be clear, the latest ice storm in Austin was close to one of the worst ice storms on record (exceeding the 'snowpocalypse' reference, at least locally, in amount of ice by more than double). This caused local power outages for many days, for many people, while it was ~30 degrees outside. Not quite as long as the 2021 event, and not quite as brutally cold, but it was definitely flashbacks for many folks.

In some respects, it was worse locally, as it caused a significantly higher amount of downed trees, and, as a result, much more damaged infrastructure (there were MANY videos posted of transformers exploding thanks to downed lines/downed trees). What it didn't damage/affect (compared to 2021), was the power generation aspect. So, if your lines were fine, you had power, unlike 2021.
