This Is The Winter That Never Ends, It Just Goes On and On My Friends

Posted on
It’s snowing outside in some places. Snow will continue today before conditions start to dry out into the overnight hours. I don’t suggest traveling this morning in the DC region unless you absolutely have to. Mainly dry conditions will return for Tuesday and Wednesday. Cold conditions will settle back in over the next few days though as wind chills drop to below zero, especially in PA and northern MD. Stay warm, drink hot chocolate, and have a great day (and a day off for some of you)!
