AAA Texas says more than 8 million Texans are driving to their holiday destinations starting Friday through New Year’s Day.
KPRC2 spoke to people at the Buc-ee’s on Highway 290 in Waller County, and they said, despite the cold weather, they are ready for the holidays.“You can actually pre-heat the car with the app on your phone, so we pre-heated the car. It was at 32 degrees, so he warmed it up,” she said.“We are headed to the grandkid’s house in Austin,” she said.
On Thursday, an Arctic blast pushed through the state, but the frigid temperatures did not stop people from purchasing their favorite snacks or getting gas at Buc-ee’s. “It’s the perfect Christmas weather. I wish we had a little snow, but then it makes it harder to drive,” LeAnn said. “It’s almost as bad snow apocalypse a couple of Valentine’s Days ago, but hopefully, it won’t last as long,” Campagna said.“Lots of presents and lots of good food. We’ve been cooking for days,” Campagna said.“At AAA we like to say make a good BET that you will arrive safely. That acronym stands for check your battery, engine, and tires,” Joshua Zuber said.Copyright 2022 by KPRC Click2Houston - All rights reserved.
