Weather Alert!! Heads up everyone

[Capital Weather @capitalweather]

1:15pm: Snow showers now moving into DC's western suburbs. They'll be with us across the region the next few hours, maybe through 5 or 6pm, probably whitening the ground for some. Anywhere from a dusting to half-inch possible, as well as some slick roads as temperatures drop a couple of degrees to the upper 20s to near 30 once snowflakes start coming down.

A Potential Winter Commuting Hazard has been issued by @NWS_BaltWash for the threat of snow between 1-7pm. A coating will be possible, use extra caution on elevated surfaces such as bridges, ramps, and overpasses. Check road conditions at https://t.co/yPN8DUJYuc.

Check out this monstrous creation from CWG reader and snow sculptor Walter-in-Falls-Church! Officially, this is a "sea monster," Walter says. "i'm calling it "chessie"."

He says he's working on a crab next, keeping with the Chesapeake Bay theme.

This is racist, plain and simple. Trump's behavior is beneath the Office of the President. Is there anyone around him who will tell him when he’s wrong?

But I have snow tires!
But I have 4WD!
But I grew up in [any state north of Virginia]!
But I can drive better than everyone else!
Just because you think you can handle driving in the snow, doesn't mean you should. Continue to stay off the roads so our crews can work safely.

A mural of the Statue of Liberty covering her face in shame was unveiled in Roubaix, France, one day before the United States celebrates Independence Day on July 4. The mural, titled “The Statue of Liberty’s Silent Protest,” was created by Dutch artist Judith de Leeuw, who painted the it over six days a building on Rue de Chemin-de-Fer. de Leeuw said the city of Roubaix "has a large migrant population, and many of them live in extremely difficult circumstances."

"The values that the statue once stood for—freedom, hope, the right to be yourself—have been lost for many,” she said.

The Statue of Liberty was a gift from France to the U.S. and stands on Liberty Island in New York – nearby Ellis Island, which was a stop for immigrants making their way to New York in 19th and 20th centuries. Both make up a National Park.

What has happened to the girls at Camp Mystic is EXACTLY what one of the country's best meteorologists
@JohnMoralesTV warned would happen.

Learn how Trump's cuts to @NOAA & @NWS have critically impacted storm prediction nationwide.

“Our worst nightmare is that weather forecast offices will be so understaffed that there will be needless loss of life,” wrote five former NWS directors from both Democratic and Republican administrations in an open letter on May 2nd.

In Houston, 44% of NWS positions are vacant.

@DominionEnergy Have done so - no response yet. And power is out completely in this area now.

[Beth Brown @kcbeth]

@DominionEnergy We are experiencing continuous intermittent power losses in the McLean area. We have reported it - can you advise the cause or when we can expect it to end?
