OPM: Delay on 1.17?

[Anonymous]

Same, I drove downtown from Bethesda and the roads were totally clear. Very few of my coworkers came in but at least I got a day away from the house / kids at home for day 5.

That’s pretty good! Roads in my McLean neighborhood (right by the community center are ice because they were never cleared. Very strange.

Most people can either telework, or they're emergency personnel and have to go in anyway. But you know that.

It’s inevitable. The high tomorrow is below freezing.

Stupid OPM.

But most of the roads were already dry, so freezing temps don't matter. If your neighborhood is unsafe, stay home, but for me it was quite safe to drive this am

Yeah roads were bone dry for me today and they will be until Thursday since it won’t get above freezing until then. Very now although I have my doubts about Friday.

Same. I was pro-school opening today, but the roads are actually very icy.

We can telework using our phones from our cars perfectly well. It’s a Friday anyway so besides occasionally checking messages there won’t be much to do.
We’ve already decided to leave Thursday evening regardless of what OPM decides. Schools will be closed anyway so it’s a perfect time to head out.
