Washington DC in the Snow | Have Camera Will Travel

Washington's weather is best known for being hot and humid in summer, but the region also gets a good dose of each of the other three seasons. But a decent winter snowfall creates havoc for the area's legions of commuters and it forces many schools to close, but it also transforms the National Mall, its monuments, and other Washington landmarks like the White House into a winter wonderland.
