Most Snow Ever in Wisconsin

I lived in Wisconsin (Eau Claire and Antigo) for a few years in the late 80s and early 90s.

Snow in Green Bay

It’s the only place I’ve ever lived where it snowed. And I was amazed then by the amounts of snow we received. But, as it turns out, that was nothing:

So far this snow season (through March 12) Green Bay has received 80.3 inches of snow. This is the first time in Green Bay’s modern-day weather history that more than 80 inches of snow has been measured (117 years of snowfall data). Normal seasonal snowfall is 53.1 inches, the National Weather Service in Ashwaubenon reported.

The most snow. Ever. In Wisconsin.

Where it snows a lot.

But this year? More than double the normal amount.

I blame man-made global warming.

Cheeseheads are pussys. I was a kid in school in Chicago when it dumped 23 inches. Couldn’t get home because the buses got stuck in drifts. I had to walk a mile to get home and wade through some drifts that were chest high. Thought I was going to die.

I, too, recall not making it home from school one night in Wisconsin. The bus couldn’t get any further. That night those of us left on the bus and the driver spent the night with the family of the last kid we dropped off. The funny thing about this is my most vivid memory of the night is the mother of the house made us cheeseburgers with sweet, purple onions. I had never tasted purple onions and to this day I love them.

Born a cheesehead (and not a pussy) lol
