Our big blizzard was in 1936 in New Berlin. It is documented in a book:
New Berlin, Wisconsin – From Country to City: A 29th Century
History by Dave Totten and Audrey Juds
See attached pages 160 and 161
There is no mention of big snow in 1922.

HI all,
I am getting a presentation together on the great ice storm of February
22, 1922. (or more accurately Feb 21 - 23) We have some pictures of the
damage here in Sauk County but I am wondering what other societies have
in their holdings and if they would be willing to share. The storm was
statewide although southeastern Wisconsin was reportedly spared.
Elsewhere from 1 to 4 inches of ice accumulated during the storm and
northern Wisconsin received heavy snow. I am happy to share research and
our pictures.
Thanks,
Paul Wolter
