Shen Baoying chimed in, "Exactly. The snow's almost stopped. Maybe it'll be just like before, and the temperature will shoot right back up."
Jiang Si sighed. "Let's just hope we don't get another blizzard."
'A little snow and a drop in temperature were one thing, but a blizzard powerful enough to capsize the Icebreaker was the real danger.'
Around eight in the morning, the moderate snowfall tapered to a light flurry. Outside, the world was once again blanketed in a thick layer of snow. They had to take this chance to clear it off the Icebreaker.
Otherwise, if it froze solid, it would be difficult to remove, and the deck could collapse under the weight.
Everyone was experienced. They opened the bay doors, drove an ice-clearing vehicle onto the deck, and began gradually pushing the snow overboard.
It took a considerable amount of time to clear the snow from the deck.
But that was just one task among many; everyone still had other conditions on the ship to check.
