Apparently what happened in Lombard (basically I live closer to Lombard than Glen Ellyn) was an actual tornado. Though the winds were only 100 mph or something (I don't know anything about tornados or what qualifies). Power is still down all around where I live and in a few surrounding towns, though most of the Chicago area did not get hit this bad at all (as I said, I guess because near here was where the tornado actually hit...) No power, still at someone's house. Their connection is slow and we have to be careful because this is all using a generator, so I'm rarely online. Mainly just to check email.
I emptied out my freezer and refrigerator today.
