It's 18 F (-8 C) here in the Washington, DC area, with about 6" (15 cm) of fresh snow. There is freezing drizzle falling right now.

The main roads (like Columbia Pike) were fine. A lot of secondary roads are unplowed or poorly plowed. The poorly plowed areas are much harder to ride on than the unplowed ones.

I'm very glad I have front studs. I wish I had been able to get my rear studs mounted as well

However, it is beautiful out there. The unplowed snow areas are light and easy to tide in. There is a soft "whoosh" and not much pedaling effort.
