Don’t worry about the Door County Highway Department employees: they still have plenty of work to do despite the lack of snow. Outside of a few instances, including on Sunday, snow removal efforts in Door County have been few and far between. In November, Door County Highway Department Patrol Superintendent Randy Dvorak said some municipalities turned down snow removal because it was such a small amount. Door County Highway Commissioner Thad Ash says his crews have been taking advantage of the lack of windshield time plowing to snow to do some of the projects that typically wait until February and March to complete.
Ash believes this is the least snow they have seen up to New Year’s Day in the last five years. According to the National Weather Service, Sunday’s inch or two of snowfall may be it for a while, with no precipitation in the forecast and temperatures above freezing on Tuesday and Wednesday.
