Northern Virginia(20 miles west of Crapitol Hill) has ZERO accumulation.
Hey, but good thing they closed down all the schools. Don't want junior to have to chance it walking/riding to school in this 35 degree, ZERO accumulation "storm" we're having.
Blizzard conditions, I see.
What I want to know is what was FEMA's response to this?
As I sit in my office looking out onto Connecticut Avenue, there is nothing on the street or the sidewalk. There is maybe 1/16th of an inch on the landscaping. None of these people has to commute in from anywhere. They all have houses or apartments in the District and I dare say, none of them ever have to pick up a shovel like the rest of us "little people."
Heck, anything to keep them away, means they won't be passing anymore stupid laws. We need more snow in DC.
From the Drudge Report:
NOT AGAIN! DC 'Snow Advisory' Issued on Day of Congressional Global Warming Hearing...
That's because we are the smart people and can handle it. They have to be spoon-fed and have their hands held.
hey the wimp factor has even made it up here to Maine, schools close the day before a storm even arrives now
... District of Columbia...
Washington 0.1" 800 am 3/7 Nat. Arboretum
Reid can not even lie well at all. What a dufus.
Dear Washington Post,
I only have enough toilet paper for two weeks, and they are predicting up to one inch of snow! Whatever shall I do?
Dear Washington Post,
It's Tuesday and they are predicting one inch of snow on Wednesday. I need to abandon my car NOW! Is the Wilson Bridge or the American Legion Bridge a better place?
Dear Washington Post,
They are expecting an inch of snow today, so I may be trapped in my house for anywhere up to twelve hours. It's time for the newscasters to roam the aisles of Blockbuster, interviewing those of us who suffered from "cabin fever" on how we coped. How do I get in on that action? I want to be on TV!
Welcome to winter in DC.

Dear Washington Post,
Please forgive me for the double-post, but the blizzard has freaked me out. Where can I get free treatment for PTSD?
that being said, i am still having to monitor 3 different school websites to see if my kids are going to be dismissed early bc that is another nightmare entirely.
There is a saying here that rainfall causes a 20 point drop in the IQ of the average DC commuter. I believe that. I also believe that the IQ drop from snowfall is closer to 50 points. That puts quite a few drivers into negative territory, which accounts for much of what I witnessed on the roads this morning.
There are just a few flurries in the air. Nothing is even sticking.
One inch of snow? I'm in Central New York and we had at least 8 more inches on Monday. We've had approximately 115 inches this winter so far. Not as much as other places in NY State, but enough for me. Yesterday we had minus 25 degrees windchill. Today we've got a heatwave going...1 degree windchill. Sure wish some of that global warming would head my way.
Whatta bunch of maroons.
Wow, one could probably not be able to tell the color of a car with a dumping like that.
Did the snowplows hit the streets due to this disaster???
