'For now, it's fun:' Some in Milwaukee try to embrace another winter storm

MILWAUKEE -- Several more inches of snow that fell starting Sunday night, Jan. 27 and continued Monday piled on top of the several inches already on the ground in Milwaukee.

A FOX6 News crew on scene near Lake Michigan reported a lot of blowing and drifting Monday afternoon, along with snow-covered streets.

Significant storms in January left behind huge mounts of snow, and made parking close to impossible, but still, some were trying to make the most of it.

Mike Dries took his dog for a walk, with snow still falling on Monday.

"Right now, it's sort of pretty. I may regret it in a day or two and say 'this is just another miserable Wisconsin winter,' but for now, it's fun. She's got her little boots on here, and she's got her little coat and she's a brave girl, Maddie, brave girl," said Dries.

Meanwhile, Daniel Heck was struggling to free his vehicle. Thankfully, he had some help from friendly neighbors and a shovel.

"This is a little too much for me.  I'm about a foot and a half deep in snow and the plows came through and kind of buried me," said Heck.

Hannah Ricke took her new snowshoes out for a spin to enjoy Mother Nature's latest gift.

"My mom and dad gave me these for Christmas, and so it's just the perfect day to do it. It's refreshing to me to be cold. I feel a little bit more alive," said Ricke.

Many said they were worried about the bitterly cold temperatures moving in after the storm, with wind chills set to dip into the 20s and 30s below zero. It'll be even colder Wednesday morning, with wind chills in the 40s and 50s below zero and a high temperature of -12.
