Someone pointed out this is already for DCA- if there’s not even a flurry for the rest of the season, it’s already DCA’s 7th highest seasonal snow total for the past 30 seasons. 7th out of 30!

For IAD, it’s already the 9th highest seasonal total out of the last 30.

I'm too lazy to look but I wonder how bwi stacks up.

I broke climo last with last nights snow. And with what the models are showing for Sunday I have a real chance to break 40 inches on the season. There is no debating that December sucked real bad. But from the beginning of January to now this has been one heck of a nice winter.

I am at 29.8 inches so far on the season. With plenty more expected.
