The wind chill is currently 2 degrees.

Hilly campus + River right next to campus = windy all the time.

It's so cold. And it's not even going to snow up here.

Ha. Are these snow forcasts ever correct? If they call for 6-12", more than likely we will get around 2-3"
If it walks like socialist, quacks like socialist, smells like a socialist, .... it's a socialist. Hope, and change we can believe in.

Agreed, Ill be surprised if we get a inch. We will probably end up just getting a light coating or alot of rain.

Who doesn't like snow days? We haven't got one in over four years, so we're all wishing for one... that we probably won't get.

We were originally out today anyway for a teacher institute. If it weren't for that I'd probably be in school now because I'm sure my school wouldn't have reported a snow day.

BHSD228 hasn't had a snowday since the 70's.
But it is nice feeling like we got one, right Amber?

But yeah there's maybe an inch or two on the ground out here.
So much for 5"-8". :?

About 1.5 inches of snow in Downtown Chicago...that's bout it though :(

I was hoping for more, but it's a lot more than mother nature has been delivering lately and I did have an AWESOME 10 man snow ball massacure. Careful throwing this stuff, it's heavy enough to break a third story window.... 8)

Here in Peoria, there is any where between 10 - 15 Inches. Even in my yard, it ranges from 10 to 24 inches.
