1978 and 79 in metro DC area. We lived in Maryland.
Also, Maryland had terrible years in 2003, 2010, and I think 2016 also, but I no longer lived there. My parents were there for it though.
Roofs caving in. Electricity out and people unable to leave their homes. My friend’s elderly dad was in a 55 degree house when a neighbor finally came to get him days into the power outage. I think that was the 2010 snowstorms.
I was in NYC in 2014 (I hope I remember the year correctly) and the ice was unbelievable. Cars driving in the middle of streets sliding around. People walking in the streets at times to get around. I couldn’t believe there weren’t more accidents it was so unsafe.
