Most of you folks out in Iowa, Wisconsin and northern Michigan aren't going to like what is about to happen, but I'd love to be there for this storm. As far as storms go, this will be a dandy complete with high winds, very cold temperatures and severe drifting. The band of crippling snow amounts will run from Iowa, through Wisconsin and into northern Michigan. The openness of the terrain will lend itself to severe drifting snow and occasional complete white-outs.
Play it safe and don't go out tonight unless you really have to. This is a very dangerous storm, and the situation should not be taken lightly.
