@sarahkwatson11 That alone is enough! We’re just looking for some folks for quick interviews about what they saw/their experience with the weather and roads today, nothing technical. Let me know if you’d be willing to and we can set up a time!

@_ViMiller Thank you! I was driving alone and keeping my focus on the road, so I wouldn’t be a very helpful interview, but I did see a large number of cars on the side of the road, including some in the grass and bushes. Just wanted to warn people of how difficult the conditions were.

Counted 26 cars pulled off the road, many in the ditch or the bushes, on the drive back to Chicago today. If you can avoid the roads in snowstorms, please stay safe at home.

@urstrulybaloney Hi! I’m Violet and I’m a reporter with the Sun-Times — we’re just hearing of this issue. Would you be able to speak with me about this? If so, feel free to reply or DM me.

As I said before, thank you so much to everyone I worked with throughout my time at the Trib. You made the experience both meaningful and memorable. Please reach out if you know of other journalism opportunities out there. You'll be seeing my byline again soon!

I truly believe that housing is one of the most important issues of our time. I hope you will see my byline again soon. I have too many questions left unanswered for anyone to shut me up for long :) If you know of other journalism opportunities out there, please let me know

Silver lining? Though the Fourth of July weekend saw nine people killed, 40 injured and two mass shootings, it was Chicago's least violent Independence Day holiday in the past six years. trib.al/epP8Fw2

I should clarify that 101 W Dearborn is an ICE office. Largely the protests we’ve seen (like last Tuesday) were outside the immigration court at 55 E. Monroe St.

About 100 protesters under the overhang/on the sidewalk here. Tunes are going, people are mostly holding signs and cheering for those dancing.
