"The 2010 Snowpalooza Measuring Stick" says I got about 2 inches more

As the official snow measurement go to guy for Fishy Mike, I say we fared a lot better than further north. My yardstick, designated,"The Official 2010 Snowpalooza Measuring Stick" says we are now at 18 inches for the period 2/5 thru 2/10. Now that measurement was not developed using scientific methodology. I stuck a yard stick in the snow. I did not account for other factors such as wind, and OH BOY THERE WAS WIND ! ! !
The area where you see the snow drifting into drive was COMPLETELY covered 2 hours later. That mist in the center of pic is blowing snow
