  1. PD I, Feb 79 First big snow after moving to the area. Magical as a kid, and the aftermath was fun. Still remember big pine trees in the yard swaying in the wind and whiteout conditions. Was the event that got me interested in weather and climate. Feb 5/6 2010 my #2, and yesterday at #3.
  2. 22/23 Jan 2016 Blizzard for IAD Overall and 2-day storm total, #2 at 29.3 (#1 is 32.4 from 5/6 Feb 2010) 1-day, #2 at 22.1 (#1 is 22.5 from 11 Feb 1983)
  3. IAD will crush the record daily precip for the month of April....previous record was 2.9 on April 20, 2008.
  4. Also, this is the snowiest March Ever in the History of Dulles, displacing 92/93's 15.5.
  5. My trained eye indicates IAD had it's 4th largest seasonal snow total this year. 150 inches over the past five years. 30 inch average per year puts this 5 year period well above average!
  6. Today's low of 7 at IAD set a new daily record (8, 1988) and the expected high will easily beat the low max of 21 (1996+)
  7. Sunday looks to feature multiple record category breakage....High mins will likely be crushed at IAD and DCA, and pretty decent shot at exceeding the high max at both. I will be out soaking in that record warmth, even if it rains.
  8. That period overall was wetter and colder than the last two seasons. Another nail in the bogus "wet/warm cold/dry" cliche.
  9. Small aftershock felt down here near richmond 109am
