It was expected to start at 3p, but it started a half hour early. Schools
closed at 2p & they've already called a snow day for tomorrow. Last snowday
in Chicago was 1999. We could get anywhere from 10 to 2 feet of snow.
Some are claiming we're going to get 2-3 inches per hour. Worst time will
be 9p to 5am. Snowmobiles have been sent to the fire and police departments
for rescue capability. We're under a blizzard warning until tomorrow at 3p.
The winds are really starting to pick up. I have a feeling the winds will
be the worst part of the storm; Lake Michigan waves are supposed to be
enormous--I won't be able to get down there to photograph them.
Since we have a snow day tomorrow, I'll be free to try for some pictures.
My big worry is power--sure hope it doesn't go out because I only have a
snort or two of scotch in the house. We're having brats and baked beans for
dinner. May make some carrot cake. And a movie for sure.
Wish us luck! :-)
Big cheers, Christine from Chicago
