Southeastern Wisconsin's first major snowstorm caused power outages, some schools to open late and slippery roads Monday.
The National Weather Service says the heaviest band was six to 10 inches, which fell from around Sheboygan south to West Bend and Port Washington and west to Oconomowoc, Whitewater and La Grange.
The accumulation was less in far southeast Wisconsin. Winds of 15 to 30 miles per hour produced blowing and drifting snow.
We Energies spokesman Barry McNulty says about 1,700 people were without power Friday morning in parts of the Milwaukee, Washington, Ozaukee and Racine counties. That's down from the peak of 19,000 between midnight and 3 a.m. Monday.
