Well...

Metro trains & busses were shut down Sunday evening. No service Monday, and probably Tuesday. MARC & VRE commuter rail trains aren't running either. Neither are the three airports.

All Federal and local State & County offices are closed Monday & Tuesday.

This storm has effectively shut this area down.

We have local news coverage; guess nothing has gone national. Check out WTOP.

Lots of localised flooding around the Potomac and smaller creeks. All low areas already prone to flooding in a rainfall are awash.

Power is spotty and fluctuating. Trees are down in some areas taking lines out. Wind is a major factor, too.

Guess if it doesn't have to with politics & election season media shuns reporting the day-to-day...or even a nasty storm...
