My mom died tonight. Being the big Bears fan that she is, she “watched” the game and took her last breaths 5-10 minutes after the game ended. I miss her so much. We may not have always seen things eye to eye, but she did the best she could with what she had. I love you, Mom!

@WindyCityWxMan @loomis1978 @WeatherIzzi I missed seeing the rain in Merrillville as I was in a conference room with no windows to outside :(. Seeing as I reside south of 80 maybe I will see the main course later…

@WindyCityWxMan @FedEx Himself has to go to work this afternoon. Warning him to leave way early.

@WindyCityWxMan @johnny_bidet @shaunhundle In Steger it looks like we got 3-4” so it hopped over us too for the most part.

@WindyCityWxMan Nice! I made 2 loaves of pumpkin bread and have a loaf of sourdough waiting to be baked.

@NWSChicago On the 50th anniversary of the sinking of the Edmund Fitzgerald, no less.

[Tater 🌈😢 @KateC14]

@WindyCityWxMan @NWSChicago Monday is the 50th anniversary of Big Fitz sinking. Seems like a similar storm setup.

@ComEd This is on the edge of Calvary Cemetery on Steger Road just east of Western and just west of Richton Road (Cook County forest Preserve property near Park Forest and Steger). Not an outage yet but that tree is working on it.

@ATTHelp DM sent.

@ATTHelp Why is customer service only available M-F 8a-4p?! My internet went out again (it’s been a monthly occurrence) late Friday, very early Saturday. I called yesterday and was told I’d get a call back within 66 minutes. called back 2 hours later, had me on hold for …

[Tater 🌈😢 @KateC14]

It may be time to change if I can find out if their reliability is any better. We can do without the land line as we dropped ATT wireless as we couldn’t get service here (Verizon is just fine). Since I have an option to work from home, I need something more reliable than att.

[Tater 🌈😢 @KateC14]

Representative only to be told y’all are closed. Also, my landline has not worked in almost a month. Had someone out and he was at the hub cabinet across the road and never called me back within an update. What gives?! My only other option here is the other devil, Xfinity.

@WindyCityWxMan We desperately need rain by me.

@WGNNews I had power until about a half hour ago. Hoping it is part of restoration efforts.

One way or another, be safe lineworkers and damage assessment teams @ComEd and @NIPSCO !

[Tater 🌈😢 @KateC14]

@WindyCityWxMan So nothing for my area or NW IN?

[Tater 🌈😢 @KateC14]

@WindyCityWxMan Got it while I was out walking and smeezing. The pollen is insane out this way. Cat is green but you wouldn’t know with the layer of pollen on it. 🤧 Anyhow, hoping to make it thru whatever heads this way. I hope it plays nice with the electric grid especially in IN.
