Holt City
Unlike most villages and towns, cities were far better off. Everything was on lock down, of course, with just the occasional people or guard seen outside, wearing special shoes to let them walk over the high snow.
In Cities, it was more of a to-each-his-own thing, particularly since they were an old civilization and people had settled here for several generations, so their records and their knowledge, oral or written, were much richer than the shallow foundations of villages and even towns.
Hence, people, even young ones, generally already knew how to react in case of extreme weather conditions.
The keyword was still react, however, and the preparation was always limited to just maintaining a certain stockpile in their own houses.
Fortunately, the average levels in Cities were generally much higher than in others, especially a very old, established royalty-level City like Holt City, which even had soothsayers.
