The clock is springing forward this weekend, but Friday is still feeling like winter for much of the region.
A wind chill advisory is in place for parts of the area until 10 a.m. Friday as wind chills could fall to 5-15 below zero.
Roads will remain treacherous Friday as temperatures stay below freezing. Much of the snow that fell Thursday froze overnight, leaving sheets of ice on some area roads.
All major school systems are closed Friday.
Federal government offices in the D.C. area will be open Friday, but they are on a two-hour delayed arrival, and employees can telework or take unscheduled leave.
The closures come a day after a snowstorm dumped several inches on the region.
That March snowstorm wasn't on everyone's list of favorite things. "This is crazy. I'm over the snow right now -- I'm over it!" said Shaunta Dunbar.
But others were excited about the snow. "I'm going skiing this weekend; there'll be good powder," said Laura Mahr.
D.C. Declares Snow Emergency
A snow emergency in effect for the District of Columbia ended at 9:30 a.m.
