That is really pretty amazing. The Mid Atlantic normally doesn't have a White Christmas.

However, all the rain that we received from Friday through yesterday has pretty much washed all of the snow away, except for the mountain infront of my house. One week ago we were buried with snow, today it's 50 degrees with a few reminders left over.
