    I hope we dont see as we get into  hot/humid weather more heat related illnesses and deaths from people who had the virus and have some lingering issues with lung function or just there health in genreal.

    The unforeseen ripple effects of this will be many, unfortunately

    All evidence points to the mortality rate being substantially higher than the flu. 

    The reason for these drastic social distancing measures isn't to prevent the spread.  That is inevitable.  I've read estimates up to 80 percent of the population will be infected eventually.  The social distancing is in place to slow the spread so that the healthcare system can cope with those who will unfortunately need hospitalization, to build capacity (beds, ventilators, etc), and to maybe develop a vaccine or effective treatment plan.  It's about buying time.  There's no way that will be accomplished in a couple of weeks. 

    This is a very accurate statement.  

  3. If someone has a deadly disease, and they knowingly infect someone else, it's manslaughter.  Lock em up if they threaten to infect others.   Having an officer sit outside someones house is a wast of time and resources.

  4. OMG, I just had a revaluation.  The GFS Model upgrade was so good, it was able to foresee the Virus coming and confused it for an epic Snow Season.   All the Models saw this coming.  They just got the micro physics mixed up.

  5. Mix of rain and snow currently in Toledo.  Radar looking like we will stay in snow for the next 20 hours, albeit light to moderate for the most part.  Too bad our antecedent conditions weren't colder, otherwise this would be much different.  

     

    Felt bad saying that after what those out west have dealt with over the past 24 hours.  Sorry guys.

  6. I'm sitting here in NW Ohio looking at one of the best storm wide radars i've seen in a long time.  It's hard for me to believe we are gonna get 2" out of this.  The thing would have to littereally fall to pieces like now.  Any thoughts on this??  Is there more phasing going on?

    DTX talking 1-3. I have no idea what they are looking at but they are going to be wrong. 

    I'm scratching my head as well.  I"m no Met, but i've got this feeling that everyone's been burned so bad, they are all taking the conservative route.  

    Is it the lack of dynamics that they think will keep everything low??
