    Was a time when it used to snow in December in Wisconsin...not so very long ago either. This is from 12/15/2007 in Plymouth, WI. Pretty much all of eastern WI was getting a heavy coating that day. Soo, Steam, Smoke, Snow & Swinging Signals by Andy, on Flickr

    The sad thing is, 4-6 degrees above normal in Wisconsin in December isn't exactly warm, so when the inevitable flip to BN occurs right around the spring equinox, it effectively keeps us at roughly the same temperature (highs 35-45, lows 25-35) for about 5 months straight.

    That's how my fiance and I found out we had it. It didn't really hit her until the next week.

    It'll happen in February just in time to kill chase season...again.
  5. CheeselandSkies
    Certainly interesting times ahead although it remains to be seen whether that translates into an active Plains/Midwest spring chase season which it did in 2008, not so much in 2012 where drought/capping dominated everything after a couple of early outbreaks.

    Right?

    Roughly 1 American every minute is dying of this thing. It's causing the equivalent of a 9/11 or Hurricane Katrina every 2-3 days. bUT IT haS a 99.5$ survIval RAtE... The problem is, when you have such an enormous number of cases, 0.5% of that is still a big number. That (plus the several more percent who get severely ill but survive) is also more than enough to burn out every ICU doctor and nurse in the country.

    What's it like to be a TV met there?

    Not too excited about what this system and the other ones coming down the pipe have had to offer in the severe department especially considering what this time of year is capable of (11/10/02, 11/15 & 27/05, 11/17/13, 12/1/18).

    FIFY.

    It would seem insane RI close to land is not just an Atlantic/GoM phenomenon this year.

    This is how I feel about spring and severe weather. Not wasting 2/3 of it on moisture-scouring cold fronts, getting 2 or 3 "setups" that may or may not bust, then flipping right to summer doldrums. Sent from my Pixel 4a using Tapatalk

    From the beginning it caught my attention that COVID-19 was causing daily death tolls in Italy greater than just about all the weather disasters in the U.S. this century apart from Hurricane Katrina. That's when I knew this was no flu.

    My fiancée's father lives in San Antonio. He's in his 70s with multiple health issues (diabetes, kidney dialysis) Part of our reasoning for postponing our wedding (which should have happened this month) was to avoid potential exposure to him and other high-risk people in the family so they can be around when we have it next year.

    As a *not* winter-lover, I saw "record strong polar vortex" and freaked out a bit...then remembered a strong vortex is what keeps the cold bottled up to the north, right?

    Thankfully, "Marco" turned out to be a big ol' nothingburger (it was supposed to be part of the much-ballyhooed "double trouble" of late August), so the call-and-response can possibly occur again in 2026.

    FWIW the line between a "stormy Nina" and a dry Nina for the Midwest seems to be a fine one. I'm not particularly well versed in what to look for to predict the difference. Sent from my Pixel 4a using Tapatalk

    How about rise up against the f***-ing VIRUS?

    Wrong thread.

    One of these with some real CAPE, please. Remember 12/1/18? Sent from my Pixel 4a using Tapatalk

    Nina winter could go either way, at least for southern Wisconsin. Could be epic like '07-'08, could be MIA like 2011-12. Personally I'm fine with the Twin Cities getting all the fun in November while we remain relatively mild.

    Exactly. The greatest benefit is if both you and the infected person are masked. Second best is if the infected person is wearing a mask. If just you are wearing a mask (assuming it's not a N95) the benefit is considerably reduced but non-zero.
