Milwaukee's even worse. Mid-February featured eye-level snow. Eye-level snow. Shoveling all that snow was hell for me. I had trouble even finding the road.
Wisconsin's the only state in the US where winters last half the year. It once snowed in September and May. Whenever I think of Wisconsin weather I think of this quote from Mark Twain:
"I reverently believe that the Maker who made us all makes everything in Wisconsin but the weather. I don't know who makes that, but I think it must be raw apprentices in the weather-clerk's factory who experiment and learn how, in Wisconsin, for board and clothes, and then are promoted to make weather for countries that require a good article, and will take their custom elsewhere if they don't get it."
It was originally New England, but it's the same thing.
