  1. Ended up with 0.43" here. Came down hard but didn't last very long. Over an inch in the last week.
  2. I think the answer is simple. Testing is critical to tracking and stopping the outbreak. How would we even know a single person had it without a test? We could just say fucck it, who cares? We get all sorts of viruses and (most) survive and move on. Lots get the flu every year. This is new, however, and its behavior is largely unknown. It is pretty clear it is more severe than the flu and the fatality rate among older folks is much higher though. And ofc, there is no vaccine.
  3. I cant be bothered. I have a few things in. I'll do carry out for a while.
  4. ^At least we could offset all the old/sick people that will die from this affliction. Wouldn't want to see a reduction in population. Not enough people in this country now.
  5. You think there might be a spike in the birth rate, in say, 9 or so months from now?
  6. There has been a massive failure here wrt to testing capability. Not suggesting everyone who has a cough or a sniffle should be tested, but there was a major eff up with the initial test kits, and other countries did not have that problem. Test availability is still very limited here by comparison. In the greatest nation on earth, it's not acceptable. I will leave it to others to ponder/debate the reason(s).
  7. We are all clearly gonna die, so drink and be happy in the meantime. Cheers!
  8. Had a sudden heavy downpour around 6AM this morning with a small convective cell that passed over. Lasted about 5 mins or so.Totally not in the forecast.
  9. Since I am still alive, a Founders CBS is in my immediate future.
  10. This is simply nature's way of killing off the old people. Kids are not really affected- they are just vectors to pass it on to the old and sickly. People live too long today, thanks to science and medicine. 200 years ago life expectancy was under 50. I should be dead.
  11. It's dead. The winter I mean. Yeah I know what the next post will be- it was never alive!
  12. People will still go to sports bars and watch. Just have some video up on the screens at the arenas and crank up the volume. Loud and rowdy inebriated people. That way it will still feel pretty normal.
  13. Ofc it has. This year? Highly doubt it. As depicted it is not wedging very far south- it is sliding across to the north with nothing impeding it, and no there isn't a deep low. Just mentioned that because with progressive flow it would likely still end up being a fail, outside of perfect timing and a rapidly deepening low in the right spot.
  14. It likely wont be 1050 in reality, and even the general look as advertised is a 50 degree day in mid March without a deep low developing of the NC coast. Even then it would likely just be 40 degree rain.
  15. Our best run of "nice" days- 60s and 70s and low dews- comes in the Fall. Warm and humid can set in pretty quickly in Spring around here.
  16. Since my grass is young- only got about 10-12 weeks of growth before it went dormant last fall- not applying any weed preventer/killer. I already put down starter fertilizer a few days ago. I may do another round of that in early April if needed. I have lots of chickweed but that's normal in the Spring. It gets choked out once the grass gets going.
  17. You are a simpleton. I know you are ancient, but perhaps you are aware of the existence of smartphones. Also, if the proxy server policy doesn't block or flag it, management doesn't give a fucck. Plenty of people with office jobs spend half their time on Facebook and Twitter.
  18. lol. You are such a simpleton.
  19. I earn my bucks when I have the floor. Otherwise, I don't do shit- and still get paid well for it.
  20. No it wasn't torchy at all. The pattern has simply been persistently the antithesis for what we need for snow here. Lots of NW tracking mild to chilly rain events followed by transient dry and cold.
