  1. Spain is in way worse shape than Italy...and that's kind of hard to accomplish...
  2. Yea, people followed the shelter-in-place order for about two days. Local traffic was back to usual Wednesday standards around here, with pretty much any business that was open having a decently filled lot. And I should point out there are a lot of non-essential businesses that are still open. Tons of people were outdoors too, with the nice weather today.
  3. 1,865 cases and 19 deaths total in IL now. 300+ new cases and 3 new deaths, since yesterday.
  4. At that point I had only looked at the GFS, given it was only GFS/Euro out far enough.
  5. I'll even chalk an lol up on this one.
  6. The rare IL dry-line is looking like a good possibility. However...lapse rates look poor and the potential for widespread warm sector debris is high.
  7. 1,535 cases and 16 deaths in IL now.
  8. 1,285 total IL cases now, with 3 new deaths to make 12 total.
  9. IL is up to 9 deaths and 1,049 total cases. .
  10. Up to 753 cases and 6 deaths in IL. .
  11. With word out that this is going to occur, chaos has ensued. Walmart is beyond packed...There's a line just to get into the building. Police everywhere.
  12. Illinois is expected to be placed under a shelter-in-place order during todays news conference, which will go into effect on Saturday.
  13. It's a good thing you didn't, as the cold front under-cut just about everything.
  14. He said the same thing the past few days.
  15. 134 new IL cases, and 422 total now. 3 new deaths, with 4 total now.
  16. Several signs pointing towards a multi-town or multi-county lockdown/shelter-in-place order coming within the next day or so for the area.
  17. SPC is wayyy too overzealous, as seems to be par for the course these days.
  18. Tomorrow will likely be mitigated by widespread areas of precip and lingering debris into the afternoon for most areas. Near the SLP in IA looks best as of now.
  19. As of today, 34,713 overall cases and 2,978 deaths. Similar to other places, they are only testing those at higher risk and that have more significant symptoms...so the realistic case total is likely much higher.
  20. 128 new cases and 288 total cases now in IL, most in the metro.
  21. Operations at MDW greatly reduced, after 3 ATCT workers have tested positive.
  22. Up to 160 total cases in IL, which is the highest in the region.
  23. 1st IL death...60 year old woman from Chicago. Also, nursing home in DuPage Co that had a positive case a few days ago now has 22 additional positive resident/staff cases.
  24. I’m surprised fitness/gym locations were not included, as they have been in other states. Anything non-essential should be locked down, because it’s pretty clear the public isn’t following along when given the chance to do so in their own. .
