Traffic in Seattle is terrible all the time. My friend went to grocery store on Monday in Olympia and she said the shelves were getting empty, people were filling their baskets to the top with canned goods
I was at the local Fred Myer today and a few predictable things are sold out - hand sanitizer, liquid hand soaps, and a few other items - but it’s far from true that the shelves of EVERYTHING are emptying. Toilet paper is also running low, but is still available. Most shelves look fairly normal. Maybe it’s worse in small towns.
