5" will seem like pretty small beans to a lot of my friends and readers elsewhere, but in DC that's a sizable, if not huge, snowfall, and will probably put a damper on the holidays of the people with jobs int he Department of Public Works, who are all probably getting calls on Xmas Day to come into work to start making preparations.
