Why Wisconsin? Why?

I had nice sunny weather today, folks.  Sunny weather!  I went out and worked on holes for the berry bushes we want to put in, and was in a generally good mood.

I should have known better . . .
URGENT - WINTER WEATHER MESSAGE
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE GREEN BAY WI
953 PM CDT MON APR 18 2011 

A LATE SEASON STORM WILL BRING WINTER PRECIPITATION TO NORTHERN
AND CENTRAL WISCONSIN...

LOW PRESSURE IS EXPECTED TO MOVE FROM OKLAHOMA TUESDAY MORNING TO
SOUTHERN LOWER MICHIGAN WEDNESDAY MORNING AND BRING WINTRY
WEATHER TO MUCH OF THE WESTERN GREAT LAKES REGION. SNOW
FORECASTING THIS LATE IN THE SEASON IS DIFFICULT DUE TO THE MILD
GROUND TEMPERATURES...BUT SIX INCHES OR MORE OF SNOW IS POSSIBLE OVER MUCH OF NORTHERN AND CENTRAL WISCONSIN. LESS IS EXPECTED IN THE FAR NORTHCENTRAL PART OF THE STATE SINCE IT IS FURTHER AWAY FROM THE STORM SYSTEM. LIGHTER AMOUNTS MIGHT ALSO OCCUR NEAR LAKE MICHIGAN IF THE SNOW MIXES WITH OR CHANGES TO SLEET.
 At least the dog will be happy.  He really likes the snow.

  4. I expect this sort of nonsense from younger states like Wyoming, but I really expected more from you, Wisconsin. I am very disappointed.
