They haven't told me yet. I am still waiting to hear back. Probably around the end of summer. So not too soon. I have some business to take care of on the streets of the southside this year.

Philadelphia today has been covered in a total fog since early this morning, it's eerie, usually it lifts and the sun comes through...not today though.

Yeah, that shocked the hell outta me. Usually, at the first sign of even a flake of snow, they've got about 6-7" of salt on the road. Driving home from work last night (35 miles on I94) I'm thinking how strange it was that I can't hear any little salt pellets bouncing off the wheel wells like I usually can. Also none of the salt streaks on the glass from the wipers.

What area you do you live in? I work in Gurnee (35 miles north of Chicago) and live in Lincolnwood (about 2 blocks north of the Chicago border) and my car had zero signs of salt from anywhere inbetween. Guess we got lucky with this storm, it just wasn't cold enough for the snow to stick to the streets this time.

I live in the St. Charles Elgin area. I thought it was weird because the snow wasn't even sticking in parking lots and they were out salting the roads like a blizzard was coming. It really sucked getting stuck behind the salt truck for a copuple miles, at least I was in the mini van.
