2010-2011 Snowfall Tops 50" Mark

Starting today, this winter's snowfall total will begin to be considered "above average."  An average snow total for southeastern Wisconsin is 40"-50," so today's accumulation will push us over that threshold.  The WMC was affected financially when the snowfall totals reached 40."  Our snow removal contractor receives an extra $400 for every 5" beyond 40."  Accordingly, he (JNM Landscaping) will receive his second "bonus" payment with his March payment.  Despite the extra cost of today's snowfall it is quite beautiful.
