D.C. is the most retarded city in the world when hit with bad weather.

I’ve lived here for over 40 years and it just gets worse, year after year.

Depending on your commute you should plan accordingly.

Rain, add 30 minutes.
Rain on a Friday evening, add 1 to 3 hours.
Freezing rain, add 1 to 12 hours.
1 to 4”s of snow that sticks, add 2 to 4 hours.

The cool thing is when we get 6 or more inches with a little warning. In this case, most people stay home and you can travel around pretty easy.

I saw a taxi driver get out of his car (cash only! The seat of government of the Unites States of America is the only major city IN THE WORLD where you cannot pay for a cab ride with a credit card — even in PARIS, BERLIN, much less DETROIT and CHICAGO do you not have to ask “please get me a cab that takes credit cards”) to stop and stare up as if asking “what is this stuff falling from the sky?”

I was born and raised in Los Angeles for God’s sake and we didn’t piss on ourselves when a few drops of rain fell.
