So,
within a few hours ~4 since the last post there has been a substantial drop in decibels in the traffic noise in the Village of Justice! How much? Well it was 54dB in the morning of 4/16/16 and by noon it dropped to 41dB! That is HUGE! 13dB change would be the equivalent to (54dB) being a normal to loud conversation at ~3ft and 41dB being a whisper at 3ft.
Now, try to sleep with a normal to loud conversation happening a couple of feet away!

Here we go again will loud traffic noise in the Village of Justice, even at 3am!
Traffic noise has been 54dB now since 8pm last night- yes, constant for over 12 hours. I measure it at 3am and it was STILL 54dB, this is frustrating!
Boy, I wish the Village of Justice would do something about this noise. Even my neighbors are getting frustrated- as it has become hard to enjoy your yard when you can hear the birds or casual conversation!

Hi and Low in the Village of Justice
So,
Another strange couple of days in the Village of Justice, IL. Saturday the 9th of April started as an incredible day- 38dB. You definitely could not hear the demolition of the buildings on the corner of 79th and Cork. In fact, by 11am the noise dropped to the lowest I have recorded 35 dB since I started this project! It could be best described as amazing- the birds were singing, calling and mating ( Starlings, Northern Flickers, Grey Catbirds, Nuthatches and even a few kinglets). It was so peaceful and the Village of Justice just seemed like the most perfect place to live for the day.
Sunday was raining but in the morning it was 46 dB and rose to 50 dB by 1pm. It stayed that loud through the Monday morning recording ~5:45am.
It would bewishful thinking magical if the construction happening on the frontage road included a sound barrier!
