Where's the Snow?
Did we miss something?
All that panic by the TV stations and the end of the world scheduled for today.
Was there a schedule change?

Well the Department of Streets and Sans cleared the streets so well that you can't even tell that the snow was ever here!
Skilling was wrong??? Maybe the Dems will tell everyone the truth bout lack of manpower, too. It must be the end of the world.
Goofy Weathermen....folks who get paid handsomely even though they are wrong. Scare Weather....
Da snow vent oop nort to Visconsin... but, hey der, ve ALVAYS get snow in Visconsin!
I guess I'll need a new Mayan calendar?
It's 21 DECEMBER 2012 AND WE ARE SILL HERE!
I wrote 1984 in1948 Where is big brother, I died in 1950 maybe my calendar was wrong, or was it?
There was a decrease in the increase of snow.
The media is a joke. Now they have to make up for this with more of Rahm's propaganda about crime being down.

It's in Wisconsin.
did we hit 500 yet---- tom skilling reporting 2-4 inches of snow and 3-5 dead bodies possible by morning--- a gangbanger watch is in effect for cook county and northern indiana until "o" dark 700 tomorrow morning....
Sensationalism/White Christmas/Whatever.
Who cares?
The runt cancelled the storm, he's out of salt !
The media continues to be the non-credible, sensationalizing, blowhard, BS, propaganda news outlet. They cover all catagories of lies even the weather. I told my wife two days ago that we won't see one damm inch of snow. She asked "how do I know" and I replied, because all the news stations are saying we will see several inches.
On furlough. They made detectives. Any word on making another class of sergeants.
O.T an ET just got a CR because the victim waited over 27 hours on a burglary!
It was the great Mayan Snowfall.
It never happened.
Do you mean that the sky didn't fall?
What a fucking joke?? They were putting school cancelations out there??? Are you fucking serious??? Can you say Sensationalism?? Where is super duper dopplar radar?? Or does it just show colors??
I have more frost and wind in my fridge? Is there a winter weather warning in my refridgerator??
They hype the possibility of bad weather to keep you watching the commercials.
That's why I like having my own computer weather clock-thermometer-forecasters-barometer-hydrometer.
Streets and San snow book ... 3 inches salt per every 1 inch snow.
Told you changes were coming this Friday!
O.T an ET just got a CR because the victim waited over 27 hours on a burglary!
Only 27hrs? Damn! There is a decrease in the increase of wait time.
the guys years ago did a better job with less!
The local media considers its local weather area to be about a dozen counties. My sons were disappointed but I told them we'd only get a dusting.
On the 6pm Channel 7 News they started the broadcast with Breaking News!!
Did they catch the fugitives, is there an agreement on the fiscal cliff????
NO
Breaking News.... Winter Storm headed for Chicago!!!
WTF....Its late December!!!!!!!
This is news???!!!
And they just HAD to NAME the storm. Give me a break. Name hurricanes. Period.
"The sky is falling!! The sky is falling!!!:"
Looks like Charlie W did a fine job scaring the storm away...LOL
♫ ...in the ghetto we could build a snowman / we'll pretend that he's a mayors clown / he'll say do you have a crime scene we'll say no-man / can't you see the crime rate's going down...
Gun shots ring can you hear them / flashing lights in the distance / it's a beautiful sight another gang banger gun fight / walking in the Sanctuary City wonderland ....
Please don't forget to tip your bartenders and waitresses. They're people too.
Fool me once... shame on you.
Fool me twice... shame on me.
Fool me 382,722 times... you're a weatherman!
Even if we did get the 4" as the screamers predicted, the embarrassing coverage 2 DAYS BEFOREHAND just validates the pussification of this city and the news media that covers it.
I had to cancel my plans on my day off because I was going shovel snow then no snow falls. How do weathermen live with themselves telling all their lies.
This must be what the Mayans meant when they said the world would end.
They said 1-3 inches. So how do you get all excited about that?
FOX News was saying yesterday that the Mayan "Apocalypse" was "officially" scheduled to kick-off at 10:11 AM Chicago time. Enjoy your weekend SCC...
Complete bust-out.
Next Chicken Little warning, please.
Art Cashin on CNBC says, "the problem with predicting the end of the world is that you only can be right once."

I got tired of waiting so I retired. I left early, better than more years waiting and then years as a low seniority sergeant. Now I am free. And I have plans and no longer have to put up with the bullshit on CPD. Wife has health insurance. I have a pension and freedom. Wish it would have gone differently, enough is enough.
We need Al Sanchez back running Snow Command. Jeez, a guy with a broom on the ass end of a garbage truck could take care of this one.

Your wife must count her lucky stars that her husband has such riveting topics to discuss at the dinner table.
Off topic opened mail today to another fuck you from the city the water bill came Merry christmas 375.00.I wonder if all the suburbs that have not paid and all the banks that have blighted property are going to pay.Thats $375.oo for six month $750.00 a year just water and sewer-fucked
The Media Team Coverage scared the snow away from Chicago.
Three cheers for the head of streets and san Charlie and his gang,Great job.Amazing.
O/T..
Congratulations to all....We have surived what many predicted as our demise. Maybe the tragedies descibed are eventually going to occur. Just not today! Prayers continue to be asked for the Little Angels and their families of Sandy Hook. This tragedy just tears at our described cast iron hearts. As leos we know the sorrow and disparity this has incited, I'm not a priests or pastor but God please bless those families and the first responders.
The Mayans were correct. I read that John Daley is possibly running for governor.
New grid system of snow removal implimented by raccoon eyes was so successful, the crews had time clear the sidewalks and porches too, so everyone could take pictures of Rham's Nirvana for your HOLIDAY cards! {We can't call it Christmas...}
Watched all the snow prep guys getting ready, what a bust skilling what. Happened? On another note bought gas yesterday at thorntons in summit $3.17 a gallon, 1 day later $3.39, price fixing? Lisa madigan since your busy doing nothing how about looking into this?
be happy we didn't catch the storm. Better safe than sorry. One place in southern Wisconsin had over 19 inches. Its not like the storm didnt happen, we were just lucky the temps stayed above freezing all afternoon. Hour and half away in Iowa 25 car accident and one dead because of weather
I wonder what real story
(corruption) They are avoiding?
boy oh boy did the city save a lot of money on salt purchases/usage last year and now this year. ya think Rahm would hire a couple dozen cops with the money he saved. Nah, what was I thinking
mayans-nostradamus-local weathermen...3 wrongs make it right!maybe now the ''scholars'' that study bologna can find new hobbies...
O.T an ET just got a CR because the victim waited over 27 hours on a burglary!
12/21/2012 02:06:00 AM

When a complainant calls IPRA they have no choice but to take the CR number.
That's why in a case like this IPRA should first have a sergeant go over to the complainant and show them the PCAD printout and tell them the E.T. just got the assignment within the past 30 minutes, NOT 27 hours ago.
Of course THAT would make too much sense for the BROKEN city of Chicago.
Now a sergeant can waste 5 hours of taxpayers time to write the E.T. out of it and 'Not Sustain' the complaint.
Wisconsin got our snow but then again all the weather reports in chicago are usually wrong.

Three cheers for global warming! (I am NOT into winter sports)

Forecast for Chicago was dead on, precip began at midnight just as was said and event proceeded as was predicted, just trended to low end of snowfall. Temp still dropping as predicted.
I really am sorry that your car isn't frozen to the ground. Maybe next time.
Who cares with media it all about ratings .they suck
We don't need Mayan Predictions to destroy the Earth. We have Obama now.
Just missed 19.5 inches of snow by 128 miles. Hit West and North instead.
Not one decent word for thousands of accurate forecasts -- not even for this one.
As time progressed, the projected snow numbers for the Chicago area became less and less -- and that is exactly what we got.
http://blog.chicagoweathercenter.com/2012/12/21/huge-19-5-inch-accumulation-at-middleton-wi-only-128-miles-from-chicagos-loop-thursday-12-inch-snows-just-119-miles-away-in-northwest-illinois/
Run 1000 miles and no one notices. Appear to stumble just once, you got 100 people on you, you didn't tie your shoelaces right, etc.
An awful lot of people work this passive-aggressive thing -- contribute nothing, just hang back looking for something to criticize.
The weather forecasts had nothing to do with the Mayan calendar.

I know. If you'd lived on the Jersey Shore or in the Rockaways, there's a real good chance they'd not yet have found your body.
when we screw up, they suspend us or worse. When they do it they keep getting raises, go figure, how did we ever land a guy on the moon ???
The snow missed us but the salt didn't. I work in Bridgeport and I believe we got about 1.5 inches of salt.
Talk about overkill!
If that cold front had moved in a few hours earlier, we would be looking at about 20 inches on the ground right now.
Collectively the CPD has to be the biggest group of whiners ever!!!!!!
12-21-12 we are all still here, you bitch
Big snow storm predicted but did show, you bitch
Haven't made detectives in 5 years, they make them and you bitch!!!!!
You bitch which in turns make me bitch, WTF?!
Holy shit!!! All you guys make pretty nice money, but it will never be good enough. Yes we work for a bunch of incompetent crooks, but guess what in over 21 years I have never had a check bounce.

That's John Daly the drunken golfer. Now him I would vote for, he's better than anyone in the Daley Crime Family.
Now when it comes to organized crime, I will take the Italians over the Irish any day.
No snow at all but the City dumped half a truck full of salt on my block.
07:50 They don't live with themselves, many have wives and husbands and a few probably committed suicide after someone changed their plans on their day off planning on shoveling snow and it didn't snow

You should call the TV station and demand a snow storm if their weatherman predicted one. Don't call the TV station just to the north of us in Wisconsin that received 19.6 inches of snow from the storm that didnt happen
We got 5-6" in western Ill., along with 50-60 mph wind gusts. Lights flickered like a disco. And since the weather channel already named a storm Brutus, can we look forward to winter storms Olive Oyl and Popeye?
Hey Guys, Its the weatherman here. Please let me spin the wheel again. I know I can get it right soon.
The Mayan calendar was based on a 6 day work week.
What a great job that Charlie Williams did! Ran that clean-up just like he did in the Patrol Div. when he was the police.
Now a sergeant can waste 5 hours of taxpayers time to write the E.T. out of it and 'Not Sustain' the complaint.
Bullshit-Exonerated at the very least.
Bring back George Carlin as "The Hippy-Dippy Weather Man" Man.
At least it would be entertaining.
Although,Tracy has been wearing some mighty tight outfits lately.
The winter storm warning was meant to be advisory, not gospel truth.
Regarding public school cancellations, only a few were posted on tv. Most of those cancellations were in collar counties and/or were probably furnace related.

Shut up Bitch ! !
One to three inches has always excited me.
Now, kees me you fool!!!!
"...I'm not into winter sports..."
If you're into water sports, maybe I can help.
Now, kees me you fool!!!!
"...one weatherman had nine inches..."
Which one? Which one? I got to know.
I have to sit down. I think I am getting the vapors.
Now, kees me you fool!!!!
