Yep, it created a nice suppressed pattern all the way up to DC where areas near there and south of there actually had real winters.
I don't remember March 1980, but January 1982 was pretty big here, that one caused the downing of a jet in the Potomac if I remember correctly? Later, in April, we had a historic blizzard, that may be the only time I'll ever get to see that. February of 1989 was a blown call for us, as cold and dry air kept that storm south of us and ACY got 19 inches! December 1989 was another one....this time the storm was too close to the coast and we changed to rain with less than 1" of snow on the front end-- both were predicted to be 6-8 inches here. Do you remember the Veternas Day storm in 1987, and did you get anything from that? We only got 1-3 inches here, but that storm hit much harder both south and northeast of here.
Jan 1987 was big here too, I think the biggest storm since the Feb 1983 historic 2 ft blizzard. Later, we had accumulating 2-4" snow after the middle of April which is almost unheard of here! Back to back Aprils with snowstorms!
