    I wish more states mapped COVID like this, instead of by zip code. Thoughts on this welcome from @mappy

    Solid cell near Ellicott City. Putting down some continuous CG and spiking VIL a bit.

    SPC issues SEVERE THUNDERSTORM WATCH until 21:00 UTC

    It's entirely possible to get a dump of small hail stones from sub-severe storms today. There are several mPING report in the 0.25" - 0.5" range in areas with limited population so you know the storms are producing if you're getting reports from the void.

    Significant uptick in lightning just west of Garrett County.

    Just like that a decent wedge of clearing appears on visible. Damn.

    Hail being reported with the line NW of Morgantown, WV and it's 53/42 there. If we can manage like 65/45 today we're probably good.

    This is your "classic" DC severe day. Cloudy, limited instability but decent lapse rate and/or shear. We get some clearing and one or two spots win out but for everyone else it's a ho-hum event.

    Today has sneaky severe written all over it. Could be a legit big hailer or two even back towards Frederick.

    Do what they do any other day of the year...lump them in the waiting room for 13 hours.

    Plot twist. Certain states open up and just stop testing. Can't have a paper trail if you ignore the problem!

    This is an important item to note. I'm really glad Hogan did this and we are able to isolate and contain emerging areas of concenr to facilitate and easier "opening up".

    Yup. First lady was on hand to greet the shipment. Pretty big ball spike to the Feds, IMO.

    Baltimore and upper eastern shore slight risked on the SWODY2

    It's the carousal of anti-government twiddlef*cks.

    That would play right into their hands of the "help, help I'm being oppressed".

    PA is really the Alabama of the east coast.

    I'd put my money on a treatment before a vaccine. In 20 years of global vaccine research for SARS and MERS, not a single vaccine has been developed. There are some promising prospects out there, but even if something was announced today, there is no way commercial availability would be before November. Even then, it would only be available for hospitals for those seriously or critically ill.

    I hope the lab processing is boosted as well. Right now there's regional labs, not every state has one and we could just get another back log of confirmed/not confirmed cases.

    Was just about to say this. Hope they're already in a warehouse in the state and not en route because I've lost all faith in the Feds with this event.

    We're a big biotech capital with MedImmune, NIH, etc. in this state so we stand the chance of emerging better with testing capabilities if we really put a concerted effort through in this state.
