[World
Drift Port] There is a long line of vehicles in the outer lane of a road in Houston, Texas, in the US.
These are the vehicles that want to buy hamburgers.
[Houston Citizen: (How long did you wait?) I think it's been about 3 hours, but it's been over 3 hours.
It's probably been about four hours.] The
winter storm that hit Texas has left millions of homes out of business, and the outbreak of water supply continues, and there's a situation where you have to wait three or four hours to buy a hamburger.
So far, at least 31 people have died in cold waves across the United States, and that's really bad for homeless people.
[Houston Citizen: It is a great blessing to have a home where you can eat, wash, and rest.
I've been in my car since last month.] A
winter storm in Texas and other areas where it doesn't snow well has sent cold warnings to more than half of the US.
There are only three states on the mainland that have not snowed.
[Seattle Citizens: Usually when it snows, the wind doesn't blow, and when the wind blows, it doesn't snow, but it's really hard to withstand these two at once.]
Large automakers such as Ford and GM, as well as refineries, are also operating factories one after another. It stopped, and Wal-Mart also closed more than 500 stores.
Calcium chloride required for snow removal is running out everywhere.
[President of snow removal company: Monday, Tuesday, Thursday, Friday, it is a disaster.
The road is all covered with ice, but customers are likely to be dissatisfied because calcium chloride cannot be obtained.] The
US Meteorological Administration predicts that the winter storm that hit the southern region will move to the northeast, and there are concerns that the damage will be around 1 trillion won.
