US-WEATHER-SNOW
A Metro employee cleans snow from the train platform January 22, 2014 in Vienna, Virginia. Snow blanketed much of the northeastern United States January 21, grounding thousands of flights and causing chaos on the roads as forecasters warned that a brutal cold spell was on its way. Downtown Washington fell eerily silent after the federal government, seeing the swift-moving storm approaching, closed its doors and told civil servants -- who already had the day off Monday for the Martin Luther King holiday -- to stay home. Many offices and schools followed suit, as 20 mile (32 kilometer) per hour winds whipped through the US capital's unusually quiet streets.
