While meteorologists love to predict monumental snow storms for the district, DC usually ends up with a dusting to an inch at most. This past storm wasn’t exactly a dusting, but it certainly wasn’t the 8 inches newscasters were clamoring about. But, unlike past storms which haven’t left much more than a trace since I can remember, DC did receive a 3 or 4 inch thick blanket of fresh powder – which made for great pictures.
Just after nightfall, I bundled up and made my way out into the cold. Here are a few shots from a lap around the NW quadrant of the city.
