Hello all,
It has been an exhausting and sometimes terrifying last 24 hours here at NIU. But I wanted to report that I am OK. Thanks to the many who have emailed in and phoned; I'm still trying to contact everyone and let them know I'm fine.
For those who don't know, I'm the staff meteorologist at NIU; I was 3 buildings over from Cole Hall where the shooting occurred. We had to take cover and lock our offices until we knew the gunman was down. It was scary, to say the least.
My thoughts and prayers are with those who are suffering as a result of this madness, both on campus and off. And all prayers and thoughts that have been coming to us have been greatly and deeply appreciated.
