Snowing in West Arlington near City of Falls Church

Just saw beach cam from Rehoboth Boardwalk. That escalated quickly

More powers to you my good man. Maybe an inside the beltway thing. Cheers

Lived in McLean for 62 years. The difference between totals on MCLEAN and DCA is significant and real. However, the difference has gone down over years and we are unfortunately now closer to DCA‘s totals then we are IAD’s. That’s happened in the last 10 years and it sucks.

Guess I’m going to head to Rehoboth. Dogfish and Summer House safe me a seat at the bar

True. Nothing has compared to it since.

What did PD II give us snow wise before the crust?

I’m gone that week so rest assured it unequivocally will happen. I’ve known this for months. You can blame me. I know I will.

Good idea. Might do same

I definitely believe I’m hardwire for snow. My parents didn’t know what to make of it when I was a child. Then as teenager when I witnessed PD I, well, it cemented in me forever.

Hail in McLean

Wasn’t planning on going to Rehoboth for this one. But might as well. Need to check on the place anyway. DFH and snow is still a good thing.

Milton did really well on storm a month ago. It’s a Sussex County year in Delaware. Silver Lake was beautiful with all the ice two weeks ago

I always felt during the peak of the clipper it snowed with more intensity than anytime during the main event a few days earlier.

Thunder snow in McLean. Wow

Sky just opened up in McLean. From nothing to moderate snow in an instant

A Christmas Eve event here in McLean that actually whitened things up a bit. In the interest of optimism and a positive attitude, I will declare victory as we head into what could be a productive January.

Just started in McLean

Good call. It was the coldest day time snow I can think of having spent a lifetime in NOVA.

I only post on this board when it is about that storm. Yes it was life changing for me. Before then I loved snow because I was a teenager hoping to get out of school. After that day it was because I was fascinated by what the hell just happened. I thought I was the only one obsessed for years after that storm. Thank God I found this place. With regards to the storm, waking at dawn and looking out my window that Monday morning is still one of the most shocking weather things I ever witnessed. I have not seen those rates in the DMV since. Honestly not even close . February ‘83 was incredible. But no. ‘96 it snowed forever but not close. Biggest drifts I have seen to this day. I have pictures somewhere from ‘66 my dad took. They were actually higher. But I was only 2 1/2 so no actual memory of it. PD1 will stay with me forever.

Even similar to many 70s events in the DMV until things got going in 78 and 79.

Jim Cantore not impressed at all with any staying power of mid February flip back to winter in the East. If at all.

These last two storms remind me so much of what we used to get here when I was a kid growing up in the ‘70s. These kind of storms were our go to. It seemed like every heavy snow warning was 4-6. I think my earliest memory of a 6-8 warning was in ‘78. I was so surprised since I didn’t know that was even a thing lol. Then Feb ‘79 came and that changed everything.

I’d be fine with what 1996, 1999, and 2015 gave us
