A powerful winter storm is set to sweep through the nation’s capital, potentially delivering the heaviest snowfall seen since January 2022, or even as far back as 2019.

This looming weather event threatens to disrupt Monday’s planned certification of the 2024 presidential election results.

The National Weather Service has issued a Winter Storm Warning for Washington, D.C., effective from 10:00 PM Sunday until 1:00 AM Tuesday, forecasting heavy mixed precipitation and urging residents to avoid travel during this period.

..... Snip.....

The severe weather is likely to impact aviation and render roads impassable, posing significant challenges for the Monday morning and evening commutes.

The timing couldn’t be more consequential, with the heaviest snowfall forecasted during the Monday morning commute—the very day Congress is set to certify the presidential election results.

Reports have emerged that several members of Congress have already fled the capital over the weekend, defying advisories to remain in D.C.

Representative Marjorie Taylor Greene (R-GA), one of President Trump’s staunchest allies, took to social media to lambast her colleagues.

“January 6th at 1:00 pm Congress must certify President Trump’s historic election,” Greene declared in a fiery tweet.

“Washington has a winter storm warning for Jan 5-7th expecting possibly a foot of snow. Many members of Congress left town this weekend even though they were told to stay. I’m here and will walk to the Capitol if I have to.”
