Wrong state. Lakes, hot summers, lots of bugs. The upper Midwest is lake country. You are going to need bug spray. Also, you need to be prepared for <0 degree weather. I am from Chicago, spent time in WI, and can tell you that if you cannot handle weather extremes, it isn't for you. The people are nice. Much nicer than Chicago but the snow can bury an SUV. It tends to be cooler than Chicago too. There are plenty of 90+ degree days but I don't think you will see the thermometer hit 115. It is humid too so 83 feels like 103 (live in Denver and have since I was 14 but visit these areas for family).
