I ain't too far (35 miles or so) from you, IIRC. About 5 miles south of Rt 51 and 136.

I'm thinking you live around Peoria.

Yep, Peoria here...and it looks like the norther half of the state is going to get ass raped in the next 24 hours.  Hope everyone out there in arfcom land  stays safe, warm, and sober.   I'll be online regardless...thanks to a nice little eu2000.

I'm up here in McHenry County near the Wisconsin border. It is getting pretty ugly. Schools are closed and I am working outside right now so I will be home. My wife has to go to work, I am worried about her driving.

That would be a joke.  If everything goes right, I will be drinking by noon.

The little one decided I had enough sleep, so I am back at it.  It is raining here, and it looks like ice is accumalating on the trees pretty good, and the temps are right around freezing.  Loooks like it warms up to 33 today, so we could be in for a long one.

Well, we lucked out here on the freezing rain! Just got a good bit of warm rain, instead.

The power did go out over night, though. Fired up the genset until 7:30am when the power came back on, then headed out to the off-farm job.

Road conditions are good here. Hope everyone is doing OK. Watch for falling ice!

I got hit with a couple of chunks this morning!

Now .... back to the website work.
