I just watched Tom Skilling and he's talking 14" of snow far northern suburbs, only 1-3" far south. Ya, quite a spread.

The city of Gurnee announced today that drivers are pretty much on their own because the city is out of salt. The last bits of the salt stock are being used on hills only.

Seems like someone is not going to get re elected when he is up for re election
Daley should sell it to them at ten times what Chicago paid for it. That might help the budget a little bit. jk...

DeKalb pulled plows off the road about an hour ago because they were getting stuck in "blizzard conditions."

Odd. I was out in that area during the storm and happened to get stuck behind a few plow trucks.
