Here comes the real winter weather

Okay fellow Wisconsinites. We've had the chance to pretend the weather was bad a couple of times now, but it has really been fairly mundane stuff. This Wednesday we may get our first real taste of bad winter weather.

AccuWeather.com is forecasting by Wednesday the first in a series of storms will move out of the Gulf of Mexico and produce a swath of snow, ice and rain from the Upper Midwest to the East Coast through Friday. The best chance for significant snowfall will be from Wisconsin to New Hampshire, while a mixture of snow, ice and rain will fall from the Ohio Valley to the mid-Atlantic states.

It's making a schlub like me wish that I'd purchased a snow blower instead of a camera.
