all you need is one drop of rain on the Beltway (I-495) and everything slows to a stop. And since they forced them all back in the office, purportedly with no more telework, it will be interesting to see how they handle next week's work schedule.

With the remote work option in the past, the government (in D.C. metro) began a routine of "staying open" during major weather events because non-essential (mostly white collar feds) just worked from home.

Now... who knows?
