The wider storm

An Alberta Clipper crossed southern Wisconsin, bringing a long duration of snowfall to the region. Most locations saw between 3-6 inches of accumulation, with over-performing totals during an evening band of heavy snow in east-central Wisconsin. Storm total snow accumulations in the 7-11 inch range occurred over this area, which were higher than forecast. Snow-covered roads led to multiple crashes, one of which was fatal in Dane County.
