    80 is decent, usually until you get to Joliet, there is construction, but usually tolerable.

    I Iisten to am 780 for traffic on the eights every ten minutes, or WLS am for reports less often.

    Sometimes, there seem to be evil forces at work, though, and you might get caught in a jam.

    I was thinking of the flooding more than anything — course north might not be to much better.

    Where are you coming from? And I assume you are headed to Great Lakes.

    You find a new patch of dirt to call home or a new cab to call the office?

    Away from the Interstate, there's quite a bit of flooding, but the road east of the Missouri is fine, and even that is OK, now. Iirc.
