The Week in Photos - @wxornotBG

The past week has been greatly affected by snow, not only here in Bowling Green, but cities across the nation. While Jonas, Snowzilla, Snowmaggedon, or whatever you called the system that rocked the region, may be finally going out of style (or at least melting); I’m here to bring it back.

Several days after the storm, cities on the East Coast are still trying to get back to “normal”. I continue to come across breathtaking photos and timelapse videos from the event that show the pure beauty and power of weather. I can’t help but share.

So take a break from your workday and enjoy these snowy moments from the comfort of your warm office.

Any Star Wars fans in the house?!

If your car was stuck in the snow this weekend, at least you weren’t this guy:

D.C. was absolutely beautiful in the snow.

Those were just a few of my top picks from Twitter; be sure to visit the Capital Weather Gang’s website for more beautiful photos from the D.C. area.
