Blizzard Warning



The phrase "Blizzard Warning" is what the Demons awoke to this morning.

The very biting, cold wind had been replaced by what local news stations are referring to as the worst storm in more than two years in Milwaukee. Schools are closed, businesses closing and the snow is falling at 1-1/2 inches per hour. The wind is hitting 40 mph and the wind chill is 15 degrees.

The picture at the top is a shot from my hotel window in downtown Milwaukee early this morning. I hope you can see the snow falling vertically like rain.

The good news for the Demons as they get set to take on Marquette tonight is that the Bradley Center is just a few blocks away, so if necessary, we can slide our way over there, literally.

The National Weather Service just issued a warning saying that "if you go outside, you go at the risk of your own life."

Wow.
