Final Snowfall Totals

Final snowfall totals as reported to the National Weather Service by trained spotters. The highest snowfall totals were mainly in southern Wisconsin and in eastern Illinois (lake enhancement). The readings were extremely precise up until midnight when the winds turned gusty. It has since caused drifting and made it difficult to get accurate reports.

Woodstock 6.1"
Beloit & Monroe, WI 5.5"
Mount Morris 5.2"
Afton, WI 5.0"
Brodhead, WI 4.6"
South Beloit 4.5"
Chicago Midway 4.4"
DeKalb, Galena, Freeport, & Loves Park 4.0"
ROCKFORD & Stockton 3.9"
Council Hill 3.5"
WREX-TV 3.3"
Mount Carroll 3.0"
Clinton & Fulton 1.5"
