So, pretty much the whole southeastern portion of the state is supposed to get bombed with snow. Expecting up to 20"! 10-18" for sure. 35+ mph wind gusts with drifts up to who knows how high. It's supposed to be freakin' trecherous blizzard-like conditions.
I'm pumped. Bring it on, Wisconsin!

It's been a letdown every time.
We'll see, though. I'll be staying in tonight and watching a movie! |

And then melted away in a week. This last storm last week, has already melted completely away.
What a lame cycle of weather. What a weak winter.
How am I supposed to go baja 4x4 through my streets when there's nothing to drift around corners on??? |

I'm in a Detroit Suburb so we're fare enough away to not catch Lake Effect. Lame. I love those days where it's like, okay, not going anywhere at all today. For any reason.
Then I usually go out anyway, and enjoy the chaos.

I'm gonna play a real round of golf on Monday because I have the day off. This is going to be after a morning surf session. It's a little cold out here lately. I might need to wear a sweatshirt. |

Last night they said 1/10" of ice and 3-4" of snow by 11 this morning. I walked out the door this morning... 1/2" of slush, tops. Now they're saying 2-4 today, 5-8 over night. We'll see about that.

A 155mm shell hit the Wisconsin, and then all 9 16" guns proceeded to relegate the 155 crew to nothingness.
