weather out
Outlast the storm
To weather out something is to endure it until it passes, typically by staying in place and waiting: We'll just weather out the storm in the cabin.
The phrase combines the idea of weathering (surviving difficult conditions) with waiting something out.
It applies beyond literal weather to any temporary hardship: The company weathered out the recession.
