Definitely possible and they aren't good about publishing such things.
Before I "retired", my routine was to get up at 2am and do upgrades, work out, then head off to work to beat the Northern Virginia traffic at 4-430. Used to really hate those unscheduled maintenance periods, but you knew you were in one because all the lights would be off, no signal, etc. lol

Isn't that traffic a joy? LOL. Trying to go from Manassas to Fairfax in the morning on Rte 66, then back home in the late afternoon was SOOO much fun! And the Capital Beltway is even more fun. When I used to have to go to company meetings in Glen Burnie, MD it was a joke.
The traffic is one thing I don't miss about NOVA, though I miss just about everything else and would move back there in a second if I had the opportunity and means.

I had the joy of having 29 to I-66 and VA-28 up to Herndon. Was at my desk prepping for the rest of the day by 6am, every day. The good part was making it home for 3pm midweek kickoffs.

Oh yeah, 28 was fun, too, especially as the Dulles Corridor got larger and larger. I left the area in 2000, and I know thats it's even more densely packed now.
