Here is a list of February Mid-Atlantic Snowstorms from Intellicast. The 1979 storm was called the President's Day Snowstorm. I had forgotten that, but we had 24 inches in Lake Ridge.

Thanks for the link. In thinking about it, that snowstorm must be the one where we and what seemed like half of northern Virginia took refuge in a restaurant in McLean then know as the Joshua Tree. Suburbanites leaving the district couldn't drive any further. We had to stay there for hours until VDOT had plowed the streets and we could get home. A man who worked for the "agency" as he called it joined us at our table. That was a storm!
