Several Feet of Snow in DC?
If I were a kid, I'd think this was a raw deal.
A snowstorm on the weekend? No need to wake up early and listen to the radio for school closure information, hoping my school would be on the list. (Do people even do that anymore? Or do they just go on the school's website for that information?)
But with my so-called adult perspective, I'll just send out a wish for all my friends on the East Coast to stay safe and warm -- even with that extra foot or two of snow.
And also (because ultimately everything we know comes from pop songs), I've learned from Camera Obscura's cover of Jim Reeve's "The Blizzard" that if you're planning on traveling today by pony you might want to make other plans:

Thanks for not posting "Riding the Storm Out"! :)

Deep Blue, That's probably good news. I know your area tends to shut down nearly completely with a few inches of snow, so this will probably be a big challenge (especially coming so soon before Christmas).
BTW, I saw on the news last night some great video of Air Force one in heavy, heavy snow. Looked great.
