Their last major event was 2011 for Texas so they aren't becoming more common. They did act on many recommendations from that event but no one would have predicted a storm of that magnitude. Similar to how the some Southern states suffered a once in 100 if not 1000 year flood in 2009 that has not reoccurred though similar declarations it was going to be common. Lets not even get into the doom and gloom after Katrina followed by the absolute lack of any storms for years. As in, FUD only ends up defeating arguments because every dire prediction is bound to fail. You get real change by showing people what the benefits are to every day life not based on some biblical level type hysteria. Texas is one of the leaders in wind and solar so I am not sure where you are coming from other than succumbing to the unfortunately common parroting of facts that don't apply to the situation. So summary, Texas and the nation need to have a common and joined grid management program but for reasons of providing stability and growth. Don't lead off with telling people they have to have it because of climate change as too many will tune you out and for good reason, the conversation tends to hysterics and theater more than reality.
