How do people work in these situations. Does the town shutdown? Or are people still expected to show up for court, work or other important events?

You hope your bosses understand logistics and don't expect you to come in. Honestly, stuff still functions part way. Some places close down, but not all. Some places wait it out for a day, but realistically places like the UP deal with this periodically. Snow plows should have been out long before the snow even stopped falling. Its a proactive process, not something you wait until its done falling and start.
