The blizzard conditions that battered New Glarus on Monday had eased by early afternoon, and the Blizzard Warning for the area had been lifted as snow came to an end. New Glarus finished the storm with 10 inches of snow after 0.58 inches of rain, according to final local totals.

With the heaviest snow over, attention shifted Monday afternoon to cleanup across the village and the surrounding area as streets and highways began to be cleared. Even so, forecasters warned that blowing snow, slick roads and reduced visibility could still create travel problems for several more hours.
