There’s no way the airport doesn’t record accumulating snow today. I have snow accumulating in my driveway and on my road at 1pm.

It says linked to one man, not one man. It says in 2 days 40 people tested positive after coming in contact with the man at a nightclub. Keep the clubs open and those 40 could effect 40 more each which is 1600 and so and and so forth...

Would there not be Herd Immunity before decades took place? Seems silly to me.

Okay so I have legit moderate snow coming down and sticking right now at Noon in May 8th. The temperature has dropped from 38 degrees when I got up at 8 am to 33 degrees currently at Noon. The most incredible cold airmass I have seen this late in the season ever. If we manage to pick up measurable snow at the airport will it count towards 19-20 season or 20-21 season? lol

Where at?

I’d consider anything this time of the year a huge bonus. I’ve never seen accumulating snow of any kind in my lifetime in May, not even a dusting. I’ve seen mangeled flakes and grapple in May before but that’s it.

Fine by me. Patriots have a few asterisk next to theirs too and they still count lol.

4 prime time games are tied for most in Franchise history. Beats the 0 we had last year besides thanksgiving and then being flexed into SNF against the Steelers.

This must be way old. We’re over 75,000 deaths. We were at 33,513 deaths like a month ago lol. Not saying it’s not accurate but definitely outdated.

I know I agree but the NYS official death count not including probables is 20597 and the NYC probable count is 5359 for a total of 25,956 which is the number being reported by World O Meters. https://www.worldometers.info/coronavirus/country/us/ Mark Poloncarz and ECDOH also have stated numerous times they are not counting presumed deaths in their count right now only confirmed which is what I believe the rest of NYS is also doing outside of NYC.

They are reported separately and NYC is the only Place in NYS using probable deaths. The 323 deaths in Erie County are all confirmed.

Lake effect snow in May? That’s a first for me.

GFS has .8” QPF with temps near or below freezing at BUF on May 9th! Insane. Could see accumulating snow even at lower elevations. I’m not expecting much here but even if we got a solid coating that would be crazy given the time. I could see the higher elevations seeing several inches. Regardless the cold got this time of year is certainly going to be memorable.

Which is it ? Lol

The last few days I’ve seen a huge lax by people for sure. Way more cars on the road, people out and about, even went to get Chick Fil A for the first fast food I’ve eaten in over a month and the line was about 1/2 mile long. Driving by some stores you could barely see an open parking spot which is weird because I thought stores that were open had to have a capacity reduction where only like 15-20% of capacity could be let in at one time. They can extend the pause order all they’d like but if people don’t want to stay home they’re not going to, especially when things aren’t being enforced.

Has to be close to the lowest thickness ever recorded for that late in May if it comes to fruition. 516 in mid May is nuts and with some clearing skies could easily see temps drop into the teens with that kind of cold.

Anyone know why the last 3 days NY has stopped doing it’s evening count of probable deaths?

Still the cheapest gas prices since the 90s! $1.15 a gallon is nothing to be upset about ! I did fill up at Doogies last week for $0.79 a gallon! Cheapest gas of my lifetime for sure. Filled up my entire tank for under 10 bucks.

Is this a joke? 850s into negative double digits in mid May.

Got one and said the same thing “oh great, what do I owe them now” . Had my taxes filed with HR Block in 2014 and didn’t get the additional “piece of mind garuntee” which was like $100 extra (on top of the $275 I was already paying to have my taxes filed) and they made a mistake on my taxes and I landed up owing the IRS over $3000. Thought this was another one of those mistakes (although I now do my own taxes, cheaper and so easy now that I don’t have income from multiple states).

I would for free but there’s no reason to pay $119 for a home kit when even if you have had it and have been exposed it’s meaningless at this point. I guess for a piece of mind to know you’ve had it and recovered? However there needs to be more research into what having antibodies to this virus really means. As far as this being serious, I know numerous people who work in the healthcare industry (one a nurse at the St Joes Covid-19 campus in Cheektowaga and one a nurse at Mercy Hospital is SB) and both have said it’s horrific and they think it can’t be understated how serious this virus is even for those who are young and relatively healthy. This many people don’t die from the flu here even in the worst of flu seasons.

Rochester is defined as finger lakes according to Cuomo. And it’s a hot spot in the Finger Lakes region but Buffalo (Erie County) has 2.5x that in cases, 3400+ and we have over double the deaths (254 compared to 113). I could see it going either way for Finger Lakes region.

Correct, Trump and pence outlined this in their reopening plan last week or the week prior. Cuomo has been saying for the last week that in order for phase 1 to happen there needs to be a 14 day decline in hospitalizations for that region. Considering we just had 3-4 days of increasing hospitalizations in Erie county followed by a 1 person decline in hospitalizations yesterday were no where close.Erie County Executive Mark Poloncarz stated in his press conference yesterday we weren’t even on day one of this yet. This is the reason Cuomo wants to open up the state in regions because in some regions (CNY/North Country) there has been a decline of hospitalizations but not here.

It sounds like Cuomo will address this tomorrow, at least he said he’s going to make the decision on schools. I would bet my house on it that schools will be closed the rest of this school year. Just too many things to go wrong over 4 weeks of in school learning left. How would kids social distance on buses, in hallways, etc... as far as businesses reopening May 15th I could see him letting certain regions of Upstate begin phase 1 of the federal reopening plan if numbers continue to stay low/or decline even further. I wouldn’t expect NYC/Long Island/ and WNY to begin phase 1 May 15th as there’s still too many cases and in WNY there hasn’t been any decline in cases/hospitalizations what so ever and Cuomo has even said we are the “hot spot” of Upstate. If I had to venture a guess the North Country and CNY would have the best chance at beginning phase 1 May 15th.

Best part is NY gives the fed 26B a year more than it receives from the fed. McConnells state of KY receives 30B a year more than it gives, yet they want to criticize NY and other blue states, especially when they are the hardest impacted by the virus? Right now should be a time of non partisan unity for the good of helping all Americans regardless of party lines. People on both sides are struggling immensely and all the blame game does is cause a stalemate on getting anything meaningful accomplished.
