[QUOTE="John Halliburton, post: 18068, member: 8"] Re: Snowmageddon 2011 Lake Shore Drive will be the bitching point for a while during the mayoral campaign now taking place. I think the problem was as much people not heeding the warnings to stay off LSD-and it was broadcast before the storm with plenty of time, as much as it was the city waiting too long to close it down. According to the local weather maps, the heart of the blizzard came ashore across the city, making the lakefront one terrible place to be. Winds up to 70mph, 20' waves crashing in, total white out conditions. There is a fair stretch of lakefront on both the north and south sides that is all park, so very little to slow the blizzard down, which really buried the roadway in a hurry. To top it off, some 60 year old man was walking along the lakefront and was blown into the water. He did not survive. This morning at 7:30am it is zero degrees and sunny out. Pretty. Best regards, John [/QUOTE]
