Georgetown University students experienced disruption to classes and travel due to a major winter storm in the Washington, D.C. area beginning on Jan. 25. The National Weather Service issued a severe storm warning for Jan. 25 to 26, with an additional extreme cold warning through Jan. 28. Between 5 and 11 inches of snow fell in D.C. on Jan. 25, followed by freezing rain and sleet. While some students enjoyed a snow-filled neighborhood, others grew wary of virtual classes and experienced travel delays as Georgetown closed campuses with instructional continuity from Jan. 25 to Jan. 29. In the days following the winter storm, D.C. authorities have faced criticism over the speed of snow and ice removal.
