President Obama called it "Snowmageddon", and I believe that for once, most people would support that notion. After the blizzard snowstorm shut down the nations capitol, and surrounding areas. The shut down was not viewed as a bad thing by all, some people managed to enjoy the quiet.
Definately you will want to call ahead before setting off on any travel plans, since all public transportation is closed down and The Mayor is recommending no one attempt driving in these conditions. He stated, "We're fortunate that this happened on a weekend, might as well take advantage of it".
For those who are interested, here is a live cam view of Downtown Washington D.C. and current conditions. The music is courtesy of DeeGay Club

A couple walks down Lincoln Way West in
downtown Massillon soon after the snow
started Friday afternoon
Massillon Ohio was not hit as hard but snow crews and salt trucks were quickly overwhelmed with the heavy, wet snow. Snow crews worked overnight at Akron/Canton airport.
Perry Township and Canal Fulton officials have declared parking bans. Perry officials are asking residents to not park on township roads until noon Sunday. Canal Fulton has a ban in effect until snow plowing and removal operations have been completed. This way hopefully you won't end up with this kind of situation.
