2011 Blizzard

Good thing I'd planned to take a PTO day today to get a massage and relax from all the hard work we've been putting in at work lately. It saved me a potential 3-5 hour commute. Some poor folks have been stuck on Lake Shore for 5 hours already. Crazy! Here's a picture and article from the Chicago Tribune.

Good news = I get a snow day
Bad news = I won't be able to sleep in because the snow blowers will be going non-stop!

Here's video I took from my window.

Not a lot of accumulation on my street since the wind is blowing it so hard! I'd hate to live in the building that's perpindicular to my street...can't imagine they'll be able to open their door tomorrow! So far, accumulation on the "regular" streets is 10 inches, with 10-12 more inches to come.
