WISCONSIN (WITI) -- Northern Wisconsin is getting its first serious dose of winter -- as several inches of snow fell on the region on Monday, November 10th. The weather is the result of a "bomb cyclone" -- a swiftly and markedly intensifying storm -- that shifted the path of the jet stream and sent cold air rushing toward the United States, CNN meteorologist Dave Hennen said.
In Wisconsin, a school bus slipped off a road in Outagamie County. No students were hurt, but the driver and an aide were taken to a hospital for evaluation, the station reported.
FOX6 News viewer Barb Payne submitted the photo on the left from her own yard up north -- where the snow is approaching the bottom of her swing's seat.
