Rural Mutual Insurance: Cole Jacquin

What a great company to be apart of! Congratulations to Rural Mutual Insurance on a great accomplishment.

🎉 We did it again!

For the 18th consecutive year, Rural Mutual Insurance has been named to the Ward's 50® list of the nation's top-performing property and casualty insurance companies.

This achievement reflects the dedication of our agents, field employees, and home office staff, along with the trust our policyholders place in us every day. Ward benchmarks nearly 3,000 insurance companies across the country, evaluating financial performance and stability before recognizing the top 50 companies.

When you do the math, that means Rural Mutual Insurance ranks among the top 2% of property and casualty insurers nationwide.

Thank you to everyone who has helped make this milestone possible. For nearly a century, we've remained committed to one mission—protecting Wisconsin's families, farms, and businesses. Here's to continuing to keep . 💚

I wanted to announce my new agency in a BIG way… apparently hanging a flag from the top of the Empire State Building was frowned upon.

So this photo edit will have to do!

I’m excited to officially announce the launch of Jacquin Insurance Group and our new office in Fort Atkinson. 1026 Whitewater Ave, Fort Atkinson, WI

Same familiar face, same commitment to serving Wisconsin families and farms—just a new name and an exciting new chapter.

Thank you to everyone who has supported me along the way.

It’s official! Winter has arrived.

The Merrimac Ferry is officially closed for the 2025 season. Offseason maintenance and repair work will begin in preparation for re-opening in the spring of 2026.

In the 2025 operating season, the ferry made 39,734 crossings carrying a total of 208,823 vehicles, bicycles and pedestrians.

The ferry, formally the COLSAC III, operates seasonally to carry WIS 113 traffic across the Wisconsin River between Okee in Columbia County and Merrimac in Sauk County. https://wisconsindot.gov/Pages/travel/water/merrimac/default.aspx

~REFER TO UPDATED FORECAST~

~Major Winter Storm Friday Afternoon-Sunday~

A major winter storm is expected to bring significant snowfall totals and major travel impacts Friday night, Saturday, and Saturday night. An initial wave of accumulating snow will move through the Northern Plains Friday before gradually moving into IA after sunset Friday. The main wave of moisture will rapidly come together Friday night over these areas and gradually move east through the day Saturday. Snow is expected to fall for 18-24 hours in the heaviest areas, leading to high accumulations.

Snowfall totals of 8-12" is expected for portions of IA, MN, IL, WI, and MI. Snowfall rates will be around an inch an hour at times and snow falling for up to 24 hours will lead to a prolonged period of travel, including air travel, being affected. Snowfall totals will sharply drop on the south side because that's where the rain/snow line will be. There will likely be a sharp cutoff on the northern edge because of dry air. We will have an updated snowfall forecast this evening or tomorrow morning.
