  1. Pre-storm atop a parking deck near Roosevelt/Damen and post-storm from Hyde Park. Saw tons of tree damage and some scaffolding that had collapsed on a car along the drive home.
  2. looks like rotation moved to my south and east but this wind is no joke wow
  3. broad rotation right in front of me
  4. currently around Damen/Roosevelt, where do y’all think I should go (that I could get to in time with a car) for the best vantage point?
  5. Worried about Rockingham County… EDIT: PDS warning now, this is looking really bad
  6. Tornado-warned storm moving directly toward Charlotte now
  7. Awfully quiet in here. Structural damage reports coming in from a likely tornado near Mebane
  8. From my sister who’s picking up my niece from pre-k in Lincoln Square: “holy sh*t balls it’s like a blizzard!”
  9. Can’t imagine what it’s going to look like when this band moves through given how it’s already felt like a blizzard these last couple of hours.
  10. Pretty sure I just saw a flash of lightning here in Hyde Park
  11. Any chance the LES bullseye ends up a little further SE (Chicago metro and South Side)? Or is it mainly just a question of how much the north side and suburbs get? EDIT: either way, can’t complain too much with the synoptic snow still cranking down here
  12. Still waiting for the fun to begin down in Hyde Park—didn’t think it would take this long.
  13. hope not, especially given that I'm on the western fringe of HP. either way, should be an interesting drive to the Illinois Medical District for work tomorrow morning.
  14. Right on the fringe of the LES band down here in Hyde Park. Occasional heavy bursts and then just flurries—really wish I was a few miles further south but grateful to be getting a little extra on top of the main event.
  15. Light dusting on most but not all non-paved surfaces after about an hour of pretty decent returns in Hyde Park, ~1 mile from the lake.
  16. Hey y’all, based on these trends, should I go ahead and tell my mom in Durham County (about 5 miles NW of the city) to prepare to lose power? Or would that be jumping the gun?
  17. Sure thing! What's the site, just out of curiosity?
  18. What it looked like around 4am when I got up to use the bathroom. It's been fun watching that SUV slowly turn into a "snowmobile" over the last couple of weeks.
  19. Experiencing Alek-like rates now and feeling awful for complaining so much earlier. This is insane
  20. How much for those of us in central Cook who’ve gotten less than an inch so far today?
  21. 5 hours later and we’re finally getting some of the goods as that main lake effect band races south across downtown. My boss just told us all to stay home tomorrow
  22. I know I’m being greedy at this point but I just can’t help it. Probably could’ve gotten away with driving to and from work today!
