Winter Storm Warning in Effect, Again

The National Weather Service has once again placed DC, Baltimore, and the surrounding counties under a Winter Storm Warning, complicating the frenetic cleanup efforts already in place.

From noon Tuesday to 7pm Wednesday the NWS expects ten to twenty inches of snow to fall in blizzard-like conditions across the Mid-Atlantic region. Additional analysis of meteorological data by the Washington Post's weather team indicates that while precipitation may be less than the storms that struck the District this weekend, a convergence of low pressure zones on Tuesday may lead to an higher-intensity blizzard, with greater odds of high winds and power outages.

There has been no word from GW Administrators as to the status of classes tomorrow, nor has WMATA announced an expansion of Metrorail service from its current underground-only mode of operation. UPDATE: All classes are cancelled for Tuesday, February 9th. WMATA expects limited service on Tuesday, check more recent posts for up-to-the-minute information.
