Snow falling steadily, wind blowing in Racine County



RACINE COUNTY (WITI) -- FOX6's Henry Rosoff was stationed in Racine County as the snow fell quickly Tuesday afternoon and evening.

As FOX6's crew headed from FOX6's Brown Deer studios down to Racine County, visibility quickly deteriorated due to the falling snow and high winds.

The news crew also spotted at least one car in the ditch -- along Highway 20 -- about a mile east of I-94.

Truck driver Daniel McCann was gearing up to head home on Tuesday evening.

"You just got to take your time. That's all I can suggest. Hopefully everyone else will be home and doing the same thing -- just taking it easy," McCann said.

Plow drivers don't have that luxury! FOX6 News found Paul Lassa getting ready for a long night.

"I'll be out on the roads all night," Lassa said.

For most people out and about Tuesday evening, the blustery blizzard-like storm didn't make them money. It made them mad.

"It's really, really bad. (Traffic) was moving extraordinarily slow," one Racine Co. resident told FOX6 News.





Later Tuesday night, We Energies crews were on hand dealing with a blown transformer in the area.
