US-WEATHER-SNOW
A snowplow blows snow from the steps of the Capitol Reflecting Pool at the US Capitol in Washington, DC, January 21, 2014, as snow falls during a storm. The northeastern United States hunkered down Tuesday for a major snowstorm that forecasters warned could leave as much as one foot (30 centimeters) of snow in some places. Downtown Washington fell virtually silent after the federal government, seeing the swift-moving cold front approaching, closed its doors and told civil servants to stay home. Many offices and schools followed suit, as 20 mile (32 kilometer) per hour winds whipped the falling snow through the unusually quiet streets. Enough snow was expected to fall on the US capital to turn the evening rush hour into a Beltway traffic nightmare, as the storm churned its way into New York and the northeastern New England states.
