They keep ramping up the snow totals so now it could be 2 feet for DC proper with 18-24" in the eastern burbs and 24-30" in the western burbs.

If DC gets 2 feet, it will be the 2nd largest snowstorm in recorded history.  To beat the record from 1922, they'd have to get 28" of snow.



It's two to two-and-half feet now, at least for my neck of the woods (Arlington County), with areas to the south and west getting as much as three feet, though it isn't reflected in this map (yet):

Here is the total snowfall for the DC metro area from the Blizzard of 2016:



The snow totals at Reagan National are in dispute, however, and could go higher.
