For DC, Liberal Leave for New Year's

Once again, the Office of Personnel Management has announced that federal agencies in the DC area will operate under an unscheduled leave policy. Employees who can't make it into the office must let their supervisors know they're using leave, and emergency employees are expected to report for duty. There's some chance of rain or snow later in the day, and it is New Year's eve, but skies are clear, if dark, now.
