Government for getting most of the snow up, but if you were ticketed and towed during the snow emergency, you owe the city a lot of money right now.

Citywide snow emergency was lifted at 2 00 this afternoon, but not before 132 vehicles were ticketed and towed from snow emergency routes. Lets see. Parking ticket, towing, impoundment fees, if your car is at blue plains today, you owe the city nearly 400. This is Bruce Johnson from northwest washington, wusa9. D. C.

Even though the sun came out later, he and his mother still say schools needed to be closed. Absolutely. Yes. They should have because half the roads are still have snow and ice.
