One of my favorite storms. I was in college just north of Baltimore and had a 30” pack after the storm. No classes for a week, party after party. Drunk sledding on campus. Good times. 

February 1983?

I will call this Blizzard Alpha

It's the first 20+" snowstorm I ever experienced and it was right after we moved to Long Island.

Probably not, but perhaps instead of 12 degrees and snow it will be 14 or 15 degrees with snow? Higher temp on that thing could mean more snow, less dry air at the start

 2002-03.... that's such an underrated winter that did well for a lot of people.

PD2 was also extremely underrated, rarely do you see a storm dump over 2 feet of snow in Baltimore, JFK AND BOSTON.

Those kind of widespread snowstorms seem to have become an endangered species.

That's what was special about PD2 and 2002-03 was snowy right from December through April.

 

A throwback winter just like 1995-96 (which from what I remember was also exceptional in the Midwest and East Coast.  We all had a "return to winter" arctic shot in February that was historic.)

True megalopolis snowstorms happen approx once a decade (83/96/03/16). Hope we get one this decade too!

Didn't want to clog up the storm thread or confuse people thinking this was a current radar

Here's an oldie but goodie from the Blizzard of 78. This is in East Brunswick, NJ. I'm the one standing on top of our fort.
