Snowmageddon 2011

A monstrous blizzard hit Chicago yesterday. Highlights included over 19 inches of snow and winds of up to 50 mph (my inner Californian died a little). After shutting down the campus shuttles and advising students to stay inside for their own safety, the University finally canceled today's classes. I celebrated my first snow day by venturing into the post-blizzard snowscape and taking a few pictures. Possibly more to come if the blizzard returns tonight. Enjoy!

I tried taking a picture of some of my friends in the snow, but using a flash lit up all the snow in between us. It was snowing pretty hard...
