I am surprised the city did not have any of those school buildings open as emergency shelter/warming center during this in the 1st place. School classes were out for the holidays so i see no reason they were not able to do that for people who lost heat or became stranded in the area. They have heat, a cafeteria, gym floors with gym mats for people to sleep on.

[@karenholladay2612]

Amy Hartman, First let me do this. 🙄. Do you think it would have been wise to just open them willy-nilly? So anyone and everyone could trash the places? And/or steal everything in sight? As for having someone there to monitor the building, how are they supposed to get there? Yoohoo it's a blizzard. Lol, and it isn't nessesary to list the resources they have, WE KNOW. SMH

The whole story is that Jay was stranded and knocked on 10 doors begging for help only to be turned away even though he offered 500 dollars to sleep on the floor.
