One of those microscale circulations is just west of KLOT radar, which is estimating 100-105MPH winds 500' above the ground, so likely reaching the surface. KLOT will probably go down if it holds together.
-
Unrelated, but there is a large fire in Franklin Park. The smoke plume shows up on radar over O'Hare.
-
strongest winds on the leading edge are associated with microscale bows and are more isolated. note the stronger/longer duration winds are associated with lighter precip, indicative of the downward motion associated with the descending rear inflow jet (blue areas in velocity on the right-most image).

Other way around
-
The 12Z DVN sounding has impressive mid-level lapse rates just under 9C/km. Very warm in the low levels, which means capping ahead of it should prevent any junky convection lowering the risk of a bust.
-
HRRRx keeps showing some small pockets of 75-85KT wind gusts, fairly widespread 55-65KT gusts. Probably some QLCS spinups in there too.
-
Pretty shocked the meh SPC outlook doesn't even mention any risk for upgrade given everything going on. Already a rear inflow jet on the SD/NE activity.
-
Seems pretty straightforward to me. Test, trace, federal mask mandate w/ fines for non-compliance. If we’d had a total 6-week shutdown nationally in the spring, we wouldn’t have to deal with these conspiracies, mis-information and the trolls in this godawful thread.

You can always get tested so you know for sure. What you're describing definitely fits within the wide range of symptoms people experience, but it could just as easily be something else.
-
I'd add the "plandemic" video and widespread sharing of pseudo-science and misinformation on social media to that list. And maybe mental illness.

TN is the 4th fattest and 10th poorest state.
-
@Hoosier I have to question why the mods keep allowing people to make such blatantly political posts.
-
This pandemic is revealing how poorly educated average Americans are in science. There’s a HUGE difference between gases and droplets containing viruses, but keep believing your conspiracy theories and see where that gets ya.
-
Science and technology will help us win in the end, so I'm not sure I'd say never. I'm definitely not convinced the old American Way will be part of our future, though.

another big ol' check in the bad news column. re-infections have occurred within a few months for some people and are often worse the 2nd time around. rosy visions of herd immunity and vaccines knocking this out should be put on hold until larger-sample-sized studies can be done.
-
this explains a lot about your position on the virus and economy.
-
Hope so. Tourists are back at Willis Tower today. Fortunately, everyone I saw in line was wearing a mask properly.
-
IL ramping back up now, too. Numbers from these states that opened early should've been the first clue that this would happen. https://www.nbcchicago.com/news/coronavirus/illinois-reports-highest-daily-number-of-coronavirus-cases-in-more-than-a-month/2303179/

Similar to what happened in NYC, at-home deaths are seeing a spike in TX. Hard to know how much of this is people afraid to go to the ER/doc vs. true COVID-19 deaths, but it's still alarming.
-
More new details about the potential long-term effects are super concerning for those of us who've had the virus already.
-
We already learned in the NE that reacting to sharp rises in cases means any mask or shutdown measures are too little, too late. Now is the part where pre symptomatic or asymptomatic people are infecting their friends and families. The longer we keep making these mistakes, the longer it will take to get back to business “as usual”.
-
Already seeing that trend up in AZ and TX. FL and CA will probably follow shortly.

Good luck with a national mask law. Public shaming/cancel culture seem to be making progress. If that won’t work, more lockdowns will do the trick.
