Default Chicago crew...how many got stuck tonight? *raises hand*

this snow is a B*t$h...i got stuck twice...having no traction control didnt help so much. however i did feel like a somewhat good citizen...pushed a 330i, volvo wagon and an escalade out of intersections/snow banks...ontop of that...i duno why but i decided to wear birkenstocks today...before i knew it was going to snow...so im pretty sure my big toes are mildy frost bitten. but oh well...sure was interesting dodging fallen/bent trees and electric co. trucks on rt 41

Default well in the northern suburbs atleast it was snowing at the very least an inch and a 1/2 an hour

by the time i cam home there was about 8 inches in my unplowed driveway...it was somewhat sad...being able to get to my house was a challenge...getting in the unplowded driveway was a whole new story...haha. The plows couldnt keep up at all...on every street there was atleast 4 or 5 inches of snow ontop of a layer of ice...
