ice storm

"The Jacksonville area has had an ice storm that caused campus power outages for about forty-five minutes. Lights and heat have been restored to the main residence halls. Some off campus locations remain without power. Students in these buildings are being relocated to halls that do have power. Please check back on Monday for further updates. "

When they say some of the off campus locations, they really mean two foreign language houses and an entire apartment complex...200 students total? Two inches of ice on the ground now. More freezing rain the next two days. All on oncampus events (including tutoring hours) have been canceled and all students are requested to stay indoors as much as possible. I spent the day watching trees fall in my neighborhood...will there be finals? I hope not.
