King James

Seems so. You head south of Chicago and models have been pretty consistent since Fridayish. Chicago crew just right on the edge of the big dog so I’m sure it feels like a wild ride to them

For days now Champaign and IKK have been seeing amounts 20-30 inches. Feels like we never left the bullseye

Since I’m a novice backyard watcher, I’ll just say IKK has been in, or near, the thick of it on every run from most every model. The consistency leads me to believe that will be the way she goes

Sure, why not. IKK getting 2 feet out of this one.

Nice man If you found this to be an argument I apologize. It’s sharing Words matter. Reply to me directly

Are you aware of nonlinear warfare? For every link you can provide that say masks help, I can provide one that says they do not. And that goes for pretty much any “news” at this point. We are in deep and that much we can all recognize. You have a source, I have a source, and your neighbor has a source. Why is this? You and I could meet at a bar and I bet you could convince me to wear a mask if the conversation was sincere. I love my fellow man So why does the news, internet, tv, and science (CIG and Nature magazine 1984 Silvertooth sidebar as breadcrumbs), pin me against you when we are sharing the same experience and reacting differently? I consider the possibility that mask wearers and non mask wearers are very much alike and seeking the same resolution....a life free of fear. The source of the fear, IMO, is up for debate and where that conversation in the bar would naturally go. We pick up the tab at the end of the night and agree no matter what to help each other when the time comes.

I don’t need to reassess my life, though I constantly do, that’s growth. But if you’re ever in need I won’t turn you away. Thanks for the thoughts

I’ll address this only once cause I love this forum But I do not share your trust in government and I question the intent of the implementation of television 322 and 846 are numbers that have meaning and I’ll leave it at that.

And none of what you and I say matters. Live with it. Pick your lane and find happiness brother

As always we can only control ourselves, and that’s a beautiful thing. I respect your decisions and approach to this virus. But be nice to your fellow man. Nothing from Jonger has shown me he’s anything other than a normal dude passionate about weather. He’s neither uneducated nor dumb. He has an opinion that differs from yours. That’s what makes it all turn

The lecturing is wild

I get that and it’s a fair point. But I think you touched on the disconnect. To some it is a massive infringement. It takes all sorts to make the world go round and keep things in check And again, I think all this talk is too late. No matter which lane you picked we are about to run out of road. Tough times ahead

Don’t paint with such a broad brush. Some think politics is a farce all together.I care as much about who someone votes for as I do about the type of gum they chew. I personally abstain tho it should matter none. People would think my reasons for not wearing a mask are as crazy as I think their reasons for wearing a mask But that’s the thing, I don’t care why people wear a mask. And they shouldn’t care why I don’t. No judgement from me We need each other for reasons that stretch far beyond the virus and politics Let’s say the virus is very real AND the economy collapsing is very real. There is going to be a point in time soon when we won’t care about any of this, it’ll matter how compassionate and prepared you are. It’s good we disagree, it’s necessary Be good to your neighbors, even the ones breathing that fresh air

88/67 and we’ve had sun most of the day. Would be cool if we get something poppin down this way tonight

An impossible ask, especially in the age of nonlinear warfare. A source can be found for every stance, and that’s intentional. “Masks work” ... “Masks don’t work” The game being played goes beyond a virus, which should be clear to all, regardless how one handles the virus I’m totally fine with someone wearing a mask, I wouldn’t do it but I understand the choice others have made Just got to pick your lane and live in it.

It’s an interesting dynamic for sure. The need for control is pretty fascinating to me.

That’s life, enjoy it in your own way brother

I know I’m a little south here in IKK but the sun and humidity is unrelenting. Hottest feel to the day this summer for me. If@Hoosier is clouded in, the sun and humidity is not far from you brother

To a novice like me these pics are really cool and informative. Especially when I sit here wondering “where” it’s at. Thank you

This thread shows as much. If my neighbor wears a mask or doesn’t...Washes his hands or doesn’t...There is no judgement here. We all choose our own paths and I will help my neighbor in need regardless of the path he takes

I place blame on no one, we can only control ourselves

Light show to the NW as the sun sets. Perfect

Second wave was always going to happen. Whether we assign it to natural causes or other things, it may be prudent for people to start considering the bigger picture regarding where this is going. Gardens, hens, protein, self defense, sources of heat, water supply, cash etc are all smart things to think about having on hand. Only one option allows us to be wrong and that IMO is preparing for a collapse of society. If I am wrong, cool. Anyway looking forward to these storms tonight!

Friend saying there are real high winds and hail in that Edit He’s near Homer Glen

But a ton of people in IL don’t wear masks...it’s not required, just suggested. There hasn’t been a business yet that turned me away. Make everyone put on masks or lose your business. Pretty easy choice for businesses Pritz has nothing to do with it.
