Anything before 2003 I don't remember much of, so I am basing my ratings after that storm. In '96, I was stuck in FL for my grandparents' 50th wedding aniversary, so I missed that storm completely... it was hell to get a flight back into DCA from JAX...
Jan 2000 -- All I really remember was listening to my weather radio and hoping beyond hope Bob Ryan was wrong (that we would get grazed by the SLP at best, one inch at most) and hearing my weather radio go off ~10PM and WSWarnings being issued for 4-8 inches for us... then 6-12 later that night and so on. I remember running downstairs to my dad and telling him -- he didn't believe me until he saw the warnings himself
2009-10 season as a whole was the best... I remember being on the computer alot where I work and not getting much done during the December storm and the February storms since I was tracking the storms so much... luckily most of the admin knows I am a "weather nerd" so they let me do some model watching as long as I did some work
If I had to pick one, probably the Feb 5-6 storm first

I hardly even remember PD2. I'd suspect it's because I was working (bartender) and drunk pretty much the whole time because barely any other restaurants were open for a few days afterwards.
I got stuck in Wilkes-Barre, PA during '96. We got about 20" up there, while my hometown in Jersey got 33".
December 18-19 was an awesome storm, but its 22" was almost dwarfed by the 27" from Feb 5-6. I only got 8-9" from Feb 10, but the morning blizzard band was pretty sick.
No doubt, though, that Dec 18-19 was in my top 5 all time. Easy.
96 we were stuck in FL (JAX) for a family vacation and it was tough getting back in... we got one of the last flights back from RDU to DCA. 09-10 was awesome for both storms, both the Dec and Feb ones.

Jesus... you had me scared for a minute...

I remember being at work and getting absolutely nothing done... staff members were coming up to me and asking me about the weather all day... I was supposed to help write up a lesson plan for the next week (right before Christmas break) but I never did it cause I knew that we weren't going to be in school.
Remembering how the NAM was giving the LWX region 2.5" liquid and we all thought that was outrageously high... I'll think of more
-
did we have a small blurp a little while ago? PC screen Jiggled for a few seconds. Actually felt it clearly.
welcome to 30 mins ago

Any of you geologists have a link to what fault it was? There are stress faults all over the place, but clearly this little guy helped relieve a lot of tension.

The director of the USGS said it's possible the 5.8 was not the main event but the foreshock.
