Milwaukee's Heavy Snow Fall

Saturday, March 22, 2008

The snow storm dumped more than a foot of snow across southeastern Wisconsin. Milwaukee County got 14 inches.

The calendar says spring, but it sure didn't look like it in Milwaukee. More snow blew through parts of the Upper Midwest on Saturday, a day after as much as a foot of snow canceled some Good Friday services in parts of southern Wisconsin and southeastern Minnesota.

The snow storm dumped more than a foot of snow across southeastern Wisconsin. Milwaukee County got 14 inches. The weather slowed traffic and caused numerous spinouts, but there were no serious injuries.

Milwaukee's Mitchell International Airport reopened late Saturday morning after being closed overnight because of the snow. About 200 people had to spend the night at the terminal, said airport spokeswoman Pat Rowe.

Milwaukee's 12.4 inches of snow Friday brought the city's total this season to 96 inches, its second-heaviest on record.
