Teens below zero? :P

Another "flizzard" aka 02.15.2015?

It's cool watching snowdevils whizzing through the pasture, two inches of powder with 60mph gusts do amazing things!

Nah... snowfall rates need to be AT LEAST as intense as they were during your 'Spooky Scary Goose Whiteout'.

Heck, why stop there. We should go all the way for @RDM's vertigo glacier special. A couple QLCS spin-ups along the leading edge would be a nice touch as well.

That 01.25.85 event was a lifetime event for MD it seems.

Last winter, did feature two warned events (snow squall warning) for us and we managed to squeak 8" approx season total for snow.  But for folks not too far south of here the snow drought was very real.

We can do wind very well.  Imagine if the March 02 2018 event had the snowfall of the Feb 23 2016 system!  It was windy at times (2016) but getting 70mph gusts with 3+ inch/hr rates would be interesting.  Only thing better would be a 125 mph derecho with pea sized hail that reached up to car windows.

Let's not forget the ice storm of 02.05.2014.  We got hammered here, solid 500 (1/2" accretion).  Fortunately it wasn't windy but power lines and especially trees were a mess.  Matter of fact I still have some wood left from that one.  Balsams don't do ice well at all.
