said the state is more prepared for the weather this year than it was the last, but said there could be power outages again.

Last year, over two million Texans were out of power after the state's power grid was hit by a winter storm and freezing temperatures."I can guarantee the lights will stay on," Abbott said to a KTBC-TV reporter in November.
