Storm sets snow records
MINNEAPOLIS (AP) — Records fell as an April snowstorm blanketed the Upper Midwest.
In Wisconsin, the storm ranks as the all-time second largest snowstorm in Green Bay at 23.5 inches and a record April total of more than 35 inches there, the National Weather Service said.
The 14.9 inches at Minneapolis airport from Friday through Sunday set a record for the largest April snowstorm ever there. And it’s the snowiest start to a calendar year there, with 70.3 inches since Jan. 1.
