From the Archives: Bo After Blizzard

Summary: 
A look back at some of the amazing images caputured during the back to back blizzards in February 2010.

In early February of 2010, back to back blizzards hit the Northeast, and dropped record amounts of snow on cities up and down the coast, including Washington, D.C. Our photographers braved the elements to capture some amazing images of the White House grounds blanketed in snow, including a few of the most famous Obama family member who didn't seem bothered by the white stuff in the least.
