Ok, here are some pics from Blizzard '11 from my apartment in Rockford.  I'm going to try and venture out and take some more later on.  Tried to do some early in the storm vs. this morning pictures.  I'd say we have over a foot of snow with some major drifting going on.  The winds have been nuts!  Stay safe everyone!

Wow - we didn't get hit nearly as bad.   Snow-blow at 7 this morning.  Another pass at 12 should do it.   Snowing a bit now but winds were minor.   Thunder-snow last night - that is too weird.

We have a ton of snow.  It's going to take awhile to dig out of this one!  Crazy winds too.  I thought the windows were going to break off at times.  Guy out there snow blowing now is having a rough time of it.  The benefits of apartment life!

More snow is coming this Friday evening through the weekend but not sure what the accumulations will be (hopefully it will just be flurries and a little dusting).

That's just madness! People would starve if that happened over here! An inch stops this country working so imagine what a couple of feet would do!

wow, you guys got slammed worse than we did.  We got freezing rain, which does a number.  looks like a half inch of ice on everything this morning.  All gone from the roads already.
