In the last few days, the temperatures in Reston have been very low indeed and everything is frozen. David sent the above picture of a lake near his office.
The Washington DC area and much of Northern Virginia is now bracing itself for the first real snow of the winter - a major blizzard which is due to start on Friday afternoon/evening and continue into Saturday or even Sunday. The forecast suggests that up to 2 feet of snow is possible and the Governor of Virginia has declared a state of emergency.
Schools are already closed and people are following advice to stock up on food in the supermarkets. Above is a picture of the fresh produce section of Trader Joes in Reston which was posted by a local news organization on Facebook. The metro will be closed from Friday evening for the duration of the snow.
David is flying home to the UK tomorrow so we are hoping that the airport will remain open and that his flight will be able to leave as planned.
