Bad weather in Chicago... so what else is new? It's time to turn it into an art form. RedEye readers everywhere sent in their photos of today's storm via #redeyeweather and redeyetalk@gmail.com

I can't believe it's hailing! Luckily, I missed most of this on my way in to work this morning.

Thank you to everyone for sending in photos. We're still looking for more, so send them our way.

Was this a Photoshop contest? Look outside it's beautiful. It couldn't possibly have looked like the Apocalypse was approaching (from the lake).

Damn weather, my bike is soaked.

Very impressive pictures. Unfortunately, Tribune keeps me locked away in the basement so I didn't get to enjoy any of the nasty weather today. :(

Unfortunately, Brent? The basement is the safest place to be in weather like this :-)

I just had a flashback to that scene in the movie Independence Day when the alien space ships roll into New York and DC. Thank goodness we were spared the alien takeover.
