The snow/salt ratio on the sidewalks is now about 50/50, and the city has shut down. They’ve closed all buildings and cancelled all university operations for today and tomorrow. This includes meals at Aberdare.
The snow won’t kill us, but starvation might. If they don’t think we can walk to class, why do they think we can walk to the grocery store?
(We can.)
I waited an hour and a half in line at Lidl to buy my pint of milk and loaf of sandwich bread. Most of the shopping carts in front of me were heaped with canned food.
I feel like the Brits are being a little melodramatic.
