"Should this huge parking lot be loaded to capacity at this time? Maybe they're giving away free food?"

Should this huge parking lot be loaded to capacity at this time? I wouldn't think so. Maybe they're giving away free food? There must be something big going on here tonight. Inside the grocery store, our worst fears are realized. This entire city is shopping here. Everyone is buying milk and bread. There must have been reports of a major snow storm. Here in Southeastern New England, that's the rules. When the weather report says snow, everyone MUST report to the nearest grocery or convenience store and buy ALL the milk and bread.

Luckily the store had not been sold out of the items we came for, and after a mere 35 minute wait, it's back into the street to fend for my life, I mean, to drive home. Two side roads to avoid the masses, and the return trip is fairly uneventful. I better turn in the news right away to find out just how bad this storm is going to be. After the scene I just witnessed, it must be a doozie!

"Weather Team update.... 1 to 3 inches of snow inland and snow/rain mix along the coastline.... "    Could all those people have been watching a different channel?
