Here in WI, we have 9 inches on the ground this morning with 4 more to come. All the talk about people stocking up is so silly. For the first storm several weeks ago, people were going wild- acting like they wouldn't be able to leave their homes for a month. We got a whopping 1 inch of snow in that storm. But for this one? Not near the panic. It's all driven by how much the media plays it up. As for me, I will be going about my normal errands and activities today- I have a haircut appointment and then need to drive the kids to piano lessons. No biggie. I'll just allow more time to travel.
It's better to be prepared than not!
