We have about a quarter inch of ice that has accumulated overnight and this morning in central Illinois. About two hours ago it started snowing hard and the wind is howling out of the NW. Looks like this one isn't going to miss us....
 
Our power has been flickering, which is ominous....!!!!

I just got a note from our Chicago offices right by Midway Airport. They
have left the building and will be closed tomorrow as well.

Thanks,
