Yep. Makes me giggle to think that anyone thinks of this as normal DC weather.

Me too. When it comes to snow, I'm a total kid at heart. I can tough it out and don't complain that my street hasn't been plowed because of a measly 2" of snow, but I'd love one really big storm. Like, at LEAST 10" minimum.

OP here. Thank you!

Now that I've got some snow boots, and also have given myself permission to not exercise, I'm much happier. LOL

Historically, February has had the most snowfall of any month. At least, that is the stat my Dad keeps repeating.

The winters here are usually no snow or a lot. So this winter has followed a year of nothing. I remember the blizzard of St. Patty's Day in March 1993.

Seriously? You haven't had enough time home in the past month?

This

We've had a couple years of extremely mild winters. This winter has been bad only because of the insane cold. The recent snowstorm without the cold wouldn't have closed the schools for more than a day in a normal winter.

March is iffy, but if it does come it doesn't last long--melts quickly

Usually ends by late February/ early March, in my experience. I can remember a year when it was 90 on my birthday in April.

March can be the biggest snowstorms or complete bust. What kills me about this area is the damn wind!

March can be iffy. I remember one year in the 90s, we had snow in the first week of May, and 2 days off school.

New to here. Looking at the forecast, I gather it still snows in February. What about March?

And not April, right?
