I think that the government is doing what they can to get people off the roads and home before it hits. DC and Federal government are both shutting down at noon. Metro is operating through tonight but they will be closed Saturday and Sunday with their trains parked underground. No bus or train service this weekend.fresh_42 said:

Yes, plenty of times in the DC area. According to the OPM Archives, it was closed for 4 days in Feb. 2010.zoobyshoe said:

I envy you. Question: What do you get when it rains in tiny strips (#48) at 270° air and 265° ground temperature?Borg said:Sort of like if all of the rain that you've been getting turned to snow.

Hope it is going reasonably well there, we are next sometime tomorrow. People seem to be unworried around here overall.Borg said:

Good to see a trend of people reading actual whole books, in contrast to the general unfocused crowds and their wild back and forth jumps in attention and focus.

Strange that supermarkets are depleted in waiting for the storm, but the products that people bought in mass are bread, coke and many perishables. EDIT: Good for me, more perishables left over for me: beans (in a can, of course), tuna, distilled/bottle water, etc. Let it rip.
