Here in MD, school systems have announced closing for the rest of the week.

City of Baltimore is in Phase 3 Emergency, which means only official vehicles are allowed to drive on city streets.

The state has gotten stingy with the road salt. My street got plowed, but no salt. Northern VA is also in tight supply. Nine shiploads of salt have been ordered, the first of which has already arrived at Baltimore’s port.

Gas stations here and there are running dry. They can’t get tankers in.

I’m a lifetime resident, and can’t recall ever, this widespread a scale of problems from snow.
