2. They do something called snorkeling

There's a reason why they survived the meteor impact. (Because they are badass metal).

3. Alligator don't care

They survived cold in the past, even ice ages. They survived rocks from space. Alligator don’t care.

Cold just slows them down but it’d have to be a prolonged event for anything to happen to them.

4. Alligators tend to live in the warmer parts of the state

As a comparison, alligators are also native to North Carolina, which is colder than South and East Texas.

Texas is making headlines for lack of electricity. Otherwise, the weather would be a slip'n slide affair. We've had similar cold in the 80's. . It was the lack of power that made this such a disaster.
