I was just in that in LaSalle, IL... I hit La Salle at the same time the storm did, and it was no joke. Trees down on the road, powerlines down, at least 2 trucks got blown over where 39 crosses 80, watch body panels get ripped off of the truck in front of me, Ive only got 20k in the box and thought I was going to go over at one point... I took the next exit and holed up to let it pass. Maybe I will be able to get moving here shortly.
