| Episode narrativeepisode_narrative | A two-punch combination brought heavy snow to Vilas county over a 50 hour period. Low pressure tracking through southern Wisconsin brought up to eight inches of snow to the area on the 4th. As the low pushed to the east, cold arctic air poured into the region, causing lake-effect snows to develop. On January 5th and the morning of the 6th up to an additional 8 inches of lake-effect snow fell. Total storm accumulations of 16 inches were measured in the Boulder Junction area, with 11 inches reported at Manitowish Waters. Accumulations of 6 to 10 inches were common across the southern and eastern portions of the county. |
