'Snowmageddon' slams mid-Atlantic; utilities race to restore power - CNN.com

'Snowmageddon' slams mid-Atlantic; utilities race to restore power - CNN.com: "Washington (CNN) -- More than 2 feet of snow piled up at the nation's capital as a blizzard pounded mid-Atlantic states Saturday, cutting power to hundreds of thousands in the region in what the president referred to as 'Snowmaggedon.'

Snow fell from southern Indiana eastward to New York, Washington, Pennsylvania, Delaware and the New Jersey coast, gripping states and snarling traffic.

The snow didn't stop everyone, however. Some made fun with the white stuff, fashioning 'people' out of snow or having snowball fights. In Washington's Dupont Circle, about 1,000 people packed, rounded and flung snowballs in between outbursts of laughter.

President Obama didn't let the snow keep him from his busy Washington schedule. Faced with the swirling flakes, Obama ditched 'the Beast' -- his souped-up Cadillac limousine -- for an armored, four-wheel drive Chevy Suburban capable of trudging through the several inches of snow."


Wonder how that Global warming is working out for Obama and his friends like Gore now? Will the snow all thaw by the time they tell us about it again? ~~ The Munz
