Blizzard in Green, Wisconsin

Snowfall totals of 6 to 9 inches and winds of 35 to 50 mph caused frequent white-out conditions across the county. All schools were closed. The highway department for the Town of Cadiz reported that the slush followed by blowing and drifting snow made it difficult to keep the hilly North/South roads open. There were around six trees down in southwest Green County due to the winds.

A band of moderate to heavy snow moved across southern Wisconsin on the back side of a strong low pressure system moving into Lower Michigan, bringing a wide range of 4 to 16 inches of snow accumulation to southern Wisconsin. Snow was accompanied by frequent wind gusts of 35 to 60 mph and white-out conditions with visibilities down to 1/4 to 3/4 mile for an eight to twelve hour period of time.
