Blizzard Of '96

Danny treks around various sites in Washington,D.C., which is in the midst of a huge winter storm that's likely to deposit upwards of 20 inches of snow on the ground. He begins at the Capitol Building, where kids are sledding down the building's steps; then Danny talks with a meteorologist from the National Weather Service who says this storm may be one of the biggest ever in the mid-Atlantic region; finally, Danny visits a homeless shelter not far from Capitol Hill.
