Twenty-Some Inches of Pure White Snow

Some of the fantastic hyperbole I've heard to describe the winter storm that just moseyed on through Chicago: Snowpocalypse, Snowmageddon, The Point of Snow Return, Holofrost, Blizzaster, Catasnowphe. If you know any more, please post in the comments. I can't get enough of the stuff.

And now some photos. For the first two I'm pretty sure I was standing on Lake Michigan, which I've never swam in, mind you.
