SHAWANO, WI (WTAQ-WLUK) – Tuesday’s winter storm had an impact across Northeast Wisconsin.
Once the snow arrived, in some places, it piled up quickly.
On Shawano’s west side, the storm paid Amy Davids a somewhat unwanted visit, Tuesday morning.
She tells FOX 11 all she can do is shake her head…..and shovel.
“Honestly, I can’t believe this is happening. I mean, usually you get, I thought last week was our last good storm, I can’t believe this.”
Schools were closed, so Davids had some help from her son.
“They’re excited for the school day. And I’m sitting here thinking no because here we go again.”
Nearby, Alex Hoffman had the day off from school as well.
“We were supposed to actually have a baseball game today. And we were getting ready for that. But as you can see, that put a damper on things.
Instead, Hoffman spent the morning plowing snow.
“As it’s progressing, it’s getting a little wetter. It’s warming up a little bit right now actually. And as you can see by the slush underneath, it’s making things slippery and getting heavy.”
Downtown business owner Lee Ebel spent the morning pushing snow.
“It’s terrible. Miserable. Windy. Snowing. Wet. Real wet snow. Hard to move.”
Snow coated the streets and sidewalks downtown and kept on coming down.
Ebel says he may have to shovel again.
“Oh, I’m sure I’m going to have to do it a couple times today yet. The more you shovel, the less you have to shovel at one time.”
Amy Davids says winter is over, and she’s ready for spring.
“It’s really long, tiring. Hopefully, it just gets better at some point. Hopefully, this is the last good storm, and then we’re done. I want some green grass.”
The snow is moving out today, but the forecast calls for unseasonably cold temperatures.
