We were on CairnGorm last Sunday. Plenty of snow up there! (Ski runs aren't open yet though).

Loads of oldies died a couple of years ago, when we had a pretty cold winter. Even more homes had gas shortages. Some powerlines broke too (might have been transformer stations, can't fully remember) if my brain serves correctly.

Imagine if a city shutdown occurred.......

Depends how prepped they are.
