If you have read previous posts, you will recall that my family and I recently moved to the D.C. area. Tonight, the "mixing bowl" area--the place where every highway in a given radius intersects (I think they actually intersect multiple times) was closed down due to ice for the first time since we moved here. I believe if you want to get out of D.C. to anywhere in the surrounding area, you must use these roads. Just before rush hour everything iced over and then the slip 'n' slide ride home began for commuters. Does anyone really want to drive in an area called "Mixing Bowl" even on a good day? I don't think so.
A traffic camera site, www.TrafficLand.com, is good viewing if you who are working from home offices want to get a dose of daily commute for old times' sake. You can look at traffic cameras all over the world.
