Snow Photos Wanted From Reston For Winter Storm Gallery

RESTON, VA — Monday was supposed to be the day when students in Fairfax County Public Schools returned to their classrooms. But Mother Nature had other plans.

A winter storm warning remains in effect until 1 a.m. Tuesday throughout Northern Virginia and other parts of the region. Total snow accumulations between 5 and 10 inches are predicted, but isolated areas could get up to 12 inches if heavy banding forms, according to the National Weather Service. A trace of ice is forecast with the snow.

In addition, all federal offices in the Washington, D.C. area were closed, according to the Office of Personnel Management.
