I recall that in 1972 driving back to WDC from Mount St. Mary's in a raging snowstorm one night in probably February only to reach the beltway and see it change to rain in a New York minute.
It's Snowmageddon 1 for me but the time between that and Snowmageddon 2 was the most exciting because there was the feeling that it would be impossible to have a 2nd major storm so close together.
