As more than 13 historic inches of rain fell on Washington early this week, the waters rose and transportation on both road and rail ground to a halt. Highway, VRE, MARC, and Metro officials struggled to keep traffic moving as flooding, downed trees and debris, and even mudslides tried to thwart them. Unfortunately for commuters, their efforts did not always succeed. And as we all know, when Washington can’t commute, Washington is not happy.
