Winter storm severity ratings... Both CWG and the National Weather Service are rating this a level 4 out of 5 winter storm... because of the prolific output of snow and ice, potential for power outages (esp south of DC) and unusually low temperatures.

@realgdt.bsky.social I finally saw Frankenstein on the big screen. My God. It's movies like this that will get me into a theater. It's just stunning from the story to the camera work to the sets, the costumes, makeup, music and the lighting. I'll be rewatching it on @netflix.com many times over.

When DC is shutdown naturally, it's a great time to take a stroll. This was taken from the Lincoln. You can barely see the Washington Monument. The reflecting pool had been drained allowing people to walk through it. #Relax #BlueSkyArtShow

A very snowy day in DC. Looking from the Lincoln Memorial to the Washington Monument which is a faint shadow in the storm. The reflecting pool had been drained. A couple is casually walking through it.
