New records were set as the blizzard pummeled the the East Coast on Saturday, including dropping an astonishing 40 inches of snow in Glengary and Sheperdstown in West Virginia.

The storm became the first on record to dump at least 18 inches of snow on Washington, D.C., Philadelphia, and New York City.

The snowstorm became the largest in history in Baltimore after a measurement of 29.2 inches there. It also set the record for the biggest snowstorm in Allentown, PA (31.9 inches) and Harrisburg, PA (34 inches). 

Records were almost broken in D.C. and NYC, but not quite.
