The drive from Philadelphia, PA USA was 2:40 minutes. We saw very little traffic on I95. We continued to Northern Virginia via the Chain bridge and saw large trucks with snow plows positioned off the roads and no traffic. We have been told that bridges would be blocked at 4AM. We arrived by 3:45 and and met up with our host, Washington Bureau Chief Alan Rosnenblatt who has briefed us.
Washington DC is on lock-down, cold, and very quite.
Expected attendance is 2 million and they will spill into the city all at once starting now via public transportation that will be no doubt very slow.
Ongoing.
