[00:00:00] Speaker 1: There are not many people out and about, as you can imagine, this morning. Most people are hunkering down because this is an absolutely massive storm stretching some 1,500 miles across the United States. Here in Washington, D.C., we're expecting up to a foot of snowfall today. But in other places, southern states, for example, people are just having to hang tight. Power has been knocked out in some states. Some people are without ways to heat their homes right now. Other people, they're trying to find some fun where they can. They're out sledging. A few impromptu snowball fights springing up, but certainly people are just hanging tight because we're expecting some record snowfall. And it's not just the snow. I've got to tell you, it is absolutely freezing here, and that really gets to your bones.
