In case you haven’t heard, it’s SNOWPOCALYPSE 2010! While I know there will be a lot of negative consequences to this storm, it’s been really fun to waddle around in the snow. I just got back from the Dupont Circle snowball fight, which was SO much fun. It was supposed to be a North Dupont vs. South Dupont kind of snowball fight, but it really turned into a giant outer ring of people versus a scrappy crew in the middle, defending the Dupont fountain. (Update: NBC news just said there were 5000 people there!!) Check it out:
Memorable quotes from the snowball fight:
“Umbrellas are cheating!!”
“Who brings a @#&$%! shovel to a snowball fight?!!”
“USA! USA! USA!” (after someone brought out an American flag)
“We need snow! We’re out of snow!”

Dupont Circle snowball fight gets patriotic. USA! USA! USA!
Lots of trees and limbs down.
