Blizzard barrels toward D.C.; Senate wraps up early to escape storm
Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid (D-Nev.) is letting senators go home early to escape a massive snowstorm headed for Washington.
The Senate held its last vote of the week at 3:30 p.m. Thursday to give lawmakers enough time to catch flights before snow starts falling.
Forecasters are predicting that Washington will get a foot of snow and possibly more.
"I'm just worried about the airport in Indiana," said Sen. Richard Lugar (R-Ind.) as he hustled back to his office after the final vote.
