TELL ME SOMETHING GOOD: Texas Furniture Store Owner Opens His Doors To Help People During Crazy Winter Weather
What’s happening in Texas right now with this crazy winter weather and power outages is so very sad. Luckily there are good people willing to open their doors and help their fellow Texans.
In Houston one store owner who runs a place called Gallery Furniture is letting people stay overnight to get out of the cold. He goes by the amazing nickname “Mattress Mack,” and he’s actually known for doing good things like this in the past. He did the exact same thing using his stores as shelters after Hurricane Harvey hit the area hard back in 2017. Then the same year, he served Thanksgiving dinner to 5,000 people.
It’s obvious that Mattress Mack is just an all around good person. Snow storms, hurricanes, power outage, doesn’t matter. He’s always willing to help. Love it.

MUNDANE MYSTERIES: How big can a snowflake actually get?
With the snow falling outside I figured this is a good time to figure out how big the biggest snowflake ever was.
According to our trusty old friends at Guinness World Records, the largest snowflake on record was measured as 15 inches in diameter and 8 inches thick. Wait, WHAT?! That’s insane. Apparently these flakes fell at Fort Keogh in eastern Montana back in January of 1887. That’s a looooooong time ago so I guess take those measurements with a grain of salt.
Safe to say I haven’t seen any snowflakes here in Connecticut that big… YET!
