DC Meets Winter, Decides They Can’t Be Friends

My morning classes were canceled today much like classes throughout the DC area.  The culprit: Winter.  Welcome to winter Washington.  A lot of people are talking about this storm, and debating how bad it really is: for example.  Irrespective of how bad the weather is, take it from a guy from North Dakota: Clean off your freaking windows if you decide that you need to drive.  In other words, don’t be this idiot:

I suppose I should mention that while I did take these pictures from my car, I was stopped when I actually took them.  Anyway, don’t be this doofus.  The roads are icy which means you need to be more aware of your surrounding rather than less so.

While I know it is sometimes hard take 17 seconds to clear white fluffy snow off of your car in the morning [/snark], your safety as well as those around you requires that you do so.

Welcome to Winter capitol city dwellers.  Be safe out there: Drive slower than normal and clear off of your windows.
