IL & MI members...how's the weather? I work in an Internet Operations Center and we're getting TONS of sites faulting due to power issues in and around these two areas? What's going on up/over there?

Chicago has been in 95+ degree weather for a couple days now. Dew points in the mid-70s or higher.
It's bad.
As I type this a storm is moving into the area that's supposed to "cool" things down to the mid-80s tomorrow. LOL.

Off Topic.....
Hey G-body, I like your Avatar. I work for a large Pharma corporation, years ago someone passed a full-sized flyer version of that around at work. I still keep a copy in my desk. Just a friendly stress relief on a bad day. The first time I saw that I laughed for a week.
I may have to change my Avatar.

Overall, pharma is a good industry to be in though.

It was 99 here today and it's been +95 for the last 3 days and supposed to be for the next 3 as well. We just got a big string of outages in the last 3 hours all at once. And per www.intellicast.com, the weather doesn't look too friendly.

HOT!!! There was a heavy storm that rolled through last night (monday) that cooled it down some, but I work construction and it has been rough out on the job site.
