I don't think that's terribly catastrophic? It would be like a snow day, just black.
Agreed. I was being pretty literal. It would be a bad day for us in Calgary.

"Buildings in zone 5 are still at risk of collapse if the roofs are not immediately cleared of ash. Trees would be severely damaged due to breaking of branches. Road transport would be halted due to build up of ash on roads and cars would stop working as air-filters become clogged. Rail transport and electricity may be cut as wet ash short circuits signaling systems and sub-stations"
