The weather down here is not bad at all. The problem is that this is such a transient area with the Govt and Armed services crew. You get a lot of people who are here for a few years and not used to rain. They should make people in this area take their drivers test in a snow or ice storm. As far as the car enthusast crowd, There are a few of us into cars. No VA is very conservative and uptight. The laws are very strict and the cops are on top of any car that even LOOKS fast. It makes it difficult to really enjoy driving. Glad to have you here. Where is Ft.Washington.
