Ok, I left my desk at 2:20 pm & it is now 2:49 pm & I haven't even got out of the parking lot yet
debstromquist:
It is already snowing heavily, but the blizzard didn't begin until the early evening
debstromquist:
This poor guy had to direct traffic, otherwise I don't think any of us would have got out of that parking lot anytime soon
debstromquist:
31st St is in sight, at least
debstromquist:
31st St & Midwest Rd
debstromquist:
We're already braking for the next traffic light almost half a mile away
debstromquist:
I found the sign to the right rather ironic
debstromquist:
Still on 31st St going by the Fullersburg County Forest Preserve
debstromquist:
The spire for Christ Church of Oak Brook
debstromquist:
Another long wait to get through the intersection
debstromquist:
The flag was really whipping from the wind
debstromquist:
Looking out across the alley from my home office window
debstromquist:
Looking out from my front porch when the blizzard was going full blast
debstromquist:
Looking north
debstromquist:
I took this picture so I could compare it to how it would look the next day
debstromquist:
While I was taking pictures I kept hearing girls laughing & talking, but I couldn't see them
debstromquist:
I hope they're running home!
debstromquist:
The girl on the left lost her boot in the snow & had to go back for it
debstromquist:
She runs to catch up with the other girl
debstromquist:
The two of the them continue on their way
debstromquist:
The alley light went out when our lights flickered
debstromquist:
Blizzard video
debstromquist:
Misery
debstromquist:
The squirrels can't find their food on the ground so this one is trying to get the suet
debstromquist:
Some sparrows join him
debstromquist:
"Now where is that pile of corn & peanuts?"
debstromquist:
"I know it's here somewhere!"
debstromquist:
"I just saw it yesterday!"
debstromquist:
"I give up"
debstromquist:
Looking at the courtyard of the townhouses next door from our bedroom window
