Federal facilities were largely unaffected by severe storms that ripped through Washington and its suburbs late last week, but electricity has not been fully restored in the area.
As of late Wednesday, about 28,600 people in Montgomery County, Md.; 11,000 in Northern Virginia; 4,700 in Prince George’s County, Md.; and 1,600 in the District of Columbia still were without power, according to the Washington Post.
Throughout this week, except for yesterday's Independence Day holiday, agencies have remained open under the unscheduled leave and telework policy.
