Snow...

This morning, our local weathermorons were adamant - temperatures would be in the upper 40's or even 50 degrees, with only a 20% chance of light scattered showers. Incompetent asses, one and all.  Instead, we got several hours of sleet. It is the type of storm that DC specializes in: large, wet, droopy flakes, heavily covering everything, making the less travelled roads quite slick, and creating traffic jams and accidents at every choke point in the metropolis. Rush hour here is hellish, as I write this, and makes Napoleon's retreat from Moscow look like a picnic on the beach. Tonight, everything will freeze solid into mini-glaciers of black ice.  Local hospitals might as well start ordering mountains of back braces, artificial hips, and crutches for the casualties tomorrow morning.  It's a Winter Wonderland In DC!
