Everyone knows that Washington is not considered a snow town, but on occasion, we do get the big snows that rival the storms from Boston, Chicago and other northern cities. I have experienced every major D.C. snowstorm going back to the Presidents' Day storm of 1979 and the real biggies that stick out in my memory are: 1979, 1983, 1987 (back-to-back storms), 1996, 2003, and now 2009. There are plenty of other storms that also come to mind, but I'm talking about the knee-deep snow dumps that transform our area into a winter wonderland.
