Walking in snow-covered streets, shoveling out submerged cars and all the other telltale signs of a snowstorm were seen in Alexandria on Monday (Jan. 3).
Nearly one foot of snow fell on Alexandria from the morning throughout the afternoon, prompting the closure of the city government and virtual learning for Alexandria City Public Schools. Many eateries throughout the city are still open, including in Del Ray and Old Town.
The National Weather Service’s Winter Storm Warning remains in effect until 4 p.m., and Tuesday is expected to be sunny with a high of 37 degrees.

Bandam and Tilly had so much fun in the snow! Bandam’s favorite part was trying to catch the snowflakes, and Tilly loved how it felt on her nose. ❄️ pic.twitter.com/WWzT2Azxfh
