Central IL is getting hit with Winter Storm Landon. So far, a few inches of snow, but the ice sheets beneath the snow are proving to be hazardous.

At least 25 Semis/Cars in the ditch between Bloomington, IL & Champaign, IL on the I-74 Corridor…#ilwx #cilwx #winterstorm #landon

Meantime, the governor’s race in IL is gearing up.

Today, I am proud to say that Illinois’ budget is stronger than it has been in decades.

I am proposing a budget that delivers tax relief to families, pays down our debt and saves for a rainy day. pic.twitter.com/exwlWWNJet

I heard the groundhog saw his shadow today. Before the storm hit.

This serves as an open thread.
