After listening to DC weather people lose their minds over the potential for record-setting snowfall, I figured we were just going to get a little dusting. Turns out I was wrong.

DC got blasted the last 2 days with somewhere around 26" of snow. And it's real fluffy, heavy snow, too, so trees are collapsing, power lines are down, all that good stuff.

I got out and lurked around the 'hood today, and just walking around was crazy. Huge drifts everywhere, cars buried, etc., but a lot of people were still out trying to see what was up. Part of what was up was a 2000+ person snowball fight at Dupont Circle, which really was more like 40 50-person snowball fights, but whatever. It was a lot of people throwing lots of snow around. And for the record, this snow is excellent snowball-making snow.

I'm a little disappointed that we didn't go into full anarchy immediately, but there's still another day or two for society to (hopefully) break down. I've got my loincloth and other gear ready.
