Baltimore, D.C. break records for snowiest winter February 10, 2010 -  
3:42pm
STERLING, Va. - The current storm has put Baltimore and Washington  
over the top for their snowiest season on record.

Bryan Jackson of the National Weather Service says that as of 7 a.m.  
Wednesday, 5.2 inches of snow had fallen since Tuesday at Baltimore- 
Washington International Thurgood Marshall Airport. That brings the  
total snowfall since December to 65.6 inches and is the most since  
record-keeping began in Baltimore in 1893. The previous record, from  
1995-96, was 62.5 inches.

Meanwhile, Washington reached a seasonal snowfall record on Wednesday.  
As of 2 p.m., there were 54.9 inches recorded at Reagan National  
Airport. That's a half-inch above the previous record from the  
1898-1899 season.

Washington Dulles International Airport, which already had its  
snowiest season before the current storm began, has gotten another 4  
inches. That brings its total for the season to 67.5 inches.
