This isn't the first time this same house has seen the wrath of Texas weather.
"Because during the February 2021 freeze, the pipes burst in their house and flooded it. So they had to have their whole house kind of like reconstructed basically and had to move out, for close to a year I believe is how long they were gone," said neighbor Melissa Walner. "They they just got all of that fixed and then now this happens. So I can't even imagine what they're feeling right now."
Officials said the surrounding homes were not damaged during the fire.
