Wow! I grew up outside of Chicago! I've been in Alabama the last 30 years and do miss some of the "fun"! Christmas Eve day was horrible here, had torrential rain all day. Thunder and lightning until 1 am Christmas Day! I went last minute shopping! (It was my first day off in seven days),  I was lucky, lightning struck a transformer at the mall, cars went off the road, then the roads started washing out! We lost water by Christmas morning due to a road washing out deep enought to expose a main line and it collapsed! I had to work Christmas day but I made it to work OK!! Now we are under River Flood warnings until Thursday. Predicting more rain tomorrow! What fun!!

Take care and keep warm!
