Snowmageddon Update

Baltimore (part of the same storm) has implemented Phase 3 of their snow plan which means only emergency vehicles are allowed on the road.

Locally, we've been told:

"These are extremely dangerous winter weather conditions. Do not attempt to drive. Life-threatening blizzard conditions are occurring across the region."

"People are encouraged not to panic, just to please remain inside."

"If you become stranded in your vehicle, do not leave your car to try to walk for assistance. You can quickly become disoriented in wind-driven snow and cold. The snow will subside this evening so wait in your car for emergency help to arrive. Tie a colored cloth to your antennae for emergency vehicles to see. Move your arms legs fingers and toes to keep blood circulating."

Seriously, this snow is crazy. Some weather sites have already called it the snowiest winter on record for DC.
