The forecast might call for 60 degrees today, but this is Wisconsin and winter could be here any day.
Gov. Jim Doyle has proclaimed November 9-13, as Winter Weather Awareness Week in Wisconsin.
Doyle pointed out in his proclamation that last winter many locations in Wisconsin had record-breaking snowfall, there were 19 winter storms, and locations across the state that had temperatures drop to minus 40 degrees.
Already this year, Wausau has seen 1.4 inches of snow.
