  	... RECORD SNOWFALL FORECAST IN THE BALTIMORE-WASHINGTON DC REGION...  
LOOKING BACK AT THE BIGGEST STORM OF RECORD FOR WASHINGTON DC... THE
JANUARY 1922 KNICKERBOCKER STORM... 28.0 INCHES OF SNOW WAS PRODUCED
FROM 3.02 INCHES OF LIQUID WATER. CURRENT FORECASTS FOR THIS EVENT HAVE
TOTAL LIQUID FALLING FROM THIS STORM APPROACHING 3 INCHES... WHICH
ACCORDINGLY WOULD CREATE A SNOWFALL THAT WILL RIVAL THE KNICKERBOCKER
STORM TOTAL. GENERALLY ACROSS THE REGION... 20 TO 30 INCHES OF SNOW
WILL FALL BY SATURDAY EVENING.
