Not sure how it was where you are on the coast, but pretty sure PD1 in 1979 dropped 20-25" from Laurel-Seaford up toward Dover. -

The NAM twins are decent for the I-81 crew. 3k gets precip in before dawn, which would be great for laying down a base. 12k holds off until 10 a.m. Both seem to have the inverted trof out this way. Even a bit west of my location, which I haven't seen on any model in a couple of days. -

Euro actually lays down a slushy inch here before sunrise on Sunday. That would only be my second snowfall of 1" or more this winter, so I'd take it. Gone by noon though, like all but one snowfall this year. -
Schools here on a two-hour delay for freezing fog and low visibility. Currently under 1/8 mile visibility.

Hagerstown, MD had a week in January 1961 without snow cover. Martinsburg, WV had 6 days, from 1/8 through 1/13 with bare ground. Otherwise, snow was on the ground at both sites from 12/10 to 2/23.

38° with rain and a snow-eating fog. Visibility less than 1 mile. 0.25” in the bucket.

47 degrees, and other than on rooves, its having very little impact on the snow pack. No water on the edges of piles along driveways and roads. Still the same 5" depth we started the day with.

+ 1° here. Still a shot at zero in the next hour.

12 hours now of winds here 25-40+ with the last 8 of those more like 30-45+. An 18-hour event with these gusts will be pretty impressive.
