Drivers in Ashland had to contend with six-foot tall windrows of snow in the middle of Ashland’s Main Street as a lake-effect snowstorm dropped better than two feet of snow in the Chequamegon Bay region on Sunday and Monday. Another few inches of snow are anticipated ahead of an Alberta Clipper that is predicted to bring cold and snow through Christmas day. (Photo Courtesy Rick Olivo/Ashland Daily Press) |
Nine-year-old Kian Kolek shovels out a path through a five foot windrow taller than he is, as his grandfather Don Kolek of Ashland supervises. The youngster and his parents Cenith and Scott Kolek were making a Christmas visit and barely beat the snow to Ashland. “I don’t remember the snow being this deep even when I was a kid," said Scott Kolek.

Bill Sann of Ashland helps out his neighbors Monday by running his snowblower-equipped lawn tractor down the 300 block of Beaser Avenue. “It’s too much to deal with for a lot of these folks,” said Sann of the 26 inches of snow recorded in Ashland on Sunday and Monday.
