My experience shews that you should be alright using an three-season tent in your part of the country. I lived in Wisconsin for nearly three years and I spent the last three Winters camping in my tent (since I had a pine woods directly behind the house I was renting). Most of the time I used my three-season tents, either my ALPS Mountaineering Taurus Outfitter or my Trekk Vega 2. Both tents performed well, though I will admit the ALPS tent did not hold up as well to snow loads due to the fact it was an two-pole wedge dome design (not really designed for snow loads).

I think you should be just fine. Go out and have yourself a great time!
