ToastedRavs Posted December 27, 2015 Report Share Posted December 27, 2015 Just thought I would start this separate from main thread. It's simple. By 6p.m. central time on 12/27, simply state the town you think will end up with highest snow total from the storm. Winner gets nothing but a big congratulations. If the correct town isn't guessed, then the person closest to that town (using MapQuest directions) wins. Good luck Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ToastedRavs Posted December 28, 2015 Author Report Share Posted December 28, 2015 That's it for the official guesses. If anyone wants to guess after, that's fine, but only above entries are in the "contest". Good luck, and I am sure totals will be out sometime Tuesday.

bainbridgekid Posted December 28, 2015 Report Share Posted December 28, 2015 Given the slight SE trend, I think a line from Des Moines to extreme SE Minnesota will get hit hardest. I'll go with Waterloo.

Money Posted December 29, 2015 Report Share Posted December 29, 2015 Saw reports of 12+ in Waupaca and Green Bay Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ToastedRavs Posted December 29, 2015 Author Report Share Posted December 29, 2015 So far, the highest total I have seen is 14.6" in New London, WI. Will wait until this evening to make sure no other reports come in. If anyone has seen a higher report, please post a link or copy and paste the LSR report. Certainly looks like NE Iowa into Central WI were the lucky winners!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Geos Posted December 29, 2015 Report Share Posted December 29, 2015 Missed this thread, doh! I think somewhere in NE WI won the jackpot. 14.6" is the highest total I saw too. Some pretty close tallies coming out of Manitowoc County.

ToastedRavs Posted December 29, 2015 Author Report Share Posted December 29, 2015 La Crosse Looks like @Money won the contest. He hit the jackpot, money won the money (too bad there was none!) But, congrats. The only one to pick a spot in Wisconsin and the highest total was New London, WI---some 158 miles away but still good enough to be the winner! CONGRATS. P.S. If anyone finds a different amount, please post. Pretty sure that Money will win regardless, however. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
