Heavy snow blankets county
Updated on: 12.26.12

The predictions came true.

Brown Countians awoke to 5 inches of wet, fluffy snow and more still falling at first light Wednesday.

Brown County Emergency Management Agency Director Sara Vasquez-Fox issued a county travel advisory in the 7 a.m. hour, meaning travel restrictions are recommended to only essential travel.

Brown County and town government offices are closed today, with only essential employees to report to work.

How are you spending your snow day (or are you still trying to make it to work)? Send your snow photos and stories to newsroom@bcdemocrat.com.
