Wow...I guess people will be snowed in for sometime! I was surprised to hear it was true. Thank gosh, I shoveled my ass out!

Thanks for the info all!

Is that a euphemism for something?

It seems like my car will be in the garage for e long time

They got my alley twice and my sidestreet once.  I'd have preferred it the other way around though.

I have even less of an ass than before, LOL.

Yes, they do.  Major streets are cleared first, then side streets, and finally alleys.  Will take a few days.  Big snow plow will make one pass; you'll only have to clear your garage door.

I'll volunteer to do some alley plowing!

They plow Chuicago alleys about the same time they plow cul-de-sacs in the suburbs. The priority is:
1. Major thoroughfares.
2. Secondary through streets.
3. Side streets
4. Cul de sacs.
We'll get out sometime tomorrow (Thursday).

have been shoveling all day long but the snow in my back alley is as much as 1.5 feet

I love plowing in Chicago , but I don't think I've ever met Alley. Am I missing something?

Of surviving in Chicago! Being of our wonderful occupation, and meeting all sorts of very handy gentlemen, it makes perfect sense to keep close and special relationships with the hobbyists below:

Plumbers
HVAC
Electricians
Mechanics
And in Chicago especially- towing and plowing gents!!!
