As an Illinoisan, I can proudly say that we get snow and a heck lot of it. About three years ago, and Rainy can attest to this, we had a blizzard that dumped five feet on us. When I was as old as I was then, I was not five feet. The snow was over my head. We've had a couple of flurries so far this year, but not much has stuck. It's supposed to be very windy and blizzard-like conditions the next few days / week, though! Hurrah!
