Yes, cubsgirl. My mum lives in Chicago's Northern 'burbs (about 55 miles from me) and said it was horrid. She stood in yesterday during the storm, but did go out today.
She did have to chip her car out, but the lot at her apartment building had been properly cleared. She said the roads in her suburb had been heavily salted and that driving today wasn't bad at all.
From the sound of things, they got more sleet and ice, and less snow than we got, and didn't get the very high winds, "only" 40mph gusts to our 60 mph gusts, though Chicago, like Milwaukee, did close the roads that ran right along the shores of Lake Michigan due to 20' waves.
