Slightly above average snow and slightly below average temperatures is bold for this era.

Some of Washington, D.C.’s most memorable winters have come with the QBO in its easterly phase. The multi-blizzard winter of 2009-2010 (56.1") was an easterly QBO winter, as was 2002-2003 (29.0")...

We know there have been some memorable snow  chases at the beach,  specifically Bethany and Rehoboth during previous winters such as this one coming up featuring Nina background state. 

This forecast has that area in 0 to 6 in. Will be interesting to reflect back on this forecast must we get to early March.

While their snowfall map was reasonable, I would have broadbrushed the 12-18" zone more evenly from the mountains all the way eastward to the beaches, and then cut the numbers by 70%. So basically 9-14" for the entire midatlantic outside of the higher elevations.
