Can a treadmill replace the outside road for training?

I am training for my first Marathon May 3, but the weather here in WI is not the best for running outside. Is it possible for me to train on the treadmill when it is too cold, icy, or windy to run outside?  I am using a 3% incline and the speed varies 5.8 - 6.2 depending on how far I am running. Trust me 10 miles on a treadmill is not the most exciting thing. Or should I just bundle up and go outside?
