Cool website to keep track of all the vaccines and their stages. The 2 more promising. https://www.nytimes.com/interactive/2020/science/coronavirus-vaccine-tracker.html A vaccine in development by the British-Swedish company AstraZeneca and the University of Oxford is based on a chimpanzee adenovirus called ChAdOx1. The vaccine is in a Phase II/III trial in England and Phase III trials in Brazil and South Africa. The project may deliver emergency vaccines by October. In June, AstraZeneca said their total manufacturing capacity stands at two billion doses. Moderna was the first American company to put a vaccine into human trials.The vaccine uses messenger RNA (mRNA for short) to produce viral proteins. Moderna published promising Phase I results on July 14. Phase III trials are set to begin July 27, and the company hopes to have vaccine doses ready by early 2021.

Really nice cell across Erie County

Pretty big vaccine news today. Going into final testing phase. https://www.cbsnews.com/news/coronavirus-vaccine-moderna-final-phase-testing/

It drives me insane when people say that the weatherman are always wrong. "It's the only job in the world where you can be wrong all the time, and still keep your job". I always defend them, but literally 95% of people believe this.

This is what everyone is talking about. On their Facebook page. Misleading title “A tornado in Western New York tomorrow!!! The weather could get nuts by tomorrow afternoon.” https://wyrk.com/an-isolated-tornado-is-possible-on-thursday-in-wny/

I agree, but we've had a couple 5% days in WNY last few years.

Very few people don't wear masks here. It's virtually a way of life now.

Huge news, looks extremely promising! https://www.cbsnews.com/news/coronavirus-vaccine-moderna-testing-final-phase/ https://markets.businessinsider.com/news/stocks/stock-market-news-today-index-reaction-coronavirus-vaccine-goldman-earnings-2020-7-1029397581 Dow rallies 300 points on positive vaccine-trial data

What a great storm that was. Hit 1 mile from my apartment. EF2

KBUF sounds intrigued. Ridge pushes east of the area Thursday as a shortwave trough, and its associated surface cold front advance out of the Midwest. Scattered to numerous showers and thunderstorms are expected to develop as the cold front sweeps into the area late Thursday and Thursday night. Moderate to strong instability is expected to develop by late afternoon with increasingly favorable shear profiles. Locally damaging winds look to be the main threat, though an isolated tornado is possible, with backed low level flow veering with height creating strongly curved/favorable hodographs, suggestive of strong organized convection with rotating cells.

II'm pretty sure it was 5%.

Only 2%, typical media over blowing things.

I’m really hoping for a good lake effect season. We didn’t have one good band all of last year. We are due!! After this summer I’m really going to want a solid winter.

80. 5 different days

Lake erie is at another all time high for the date at 77 degs. It's been setting records the last few days.

nothing.

Yeah. I've just lost all faith in the medical field after being in and out of hospitals the last year with my moms cancer. The one I go to is ranked 14th in the country. They are not as good as I thought they were.

Yes, but this strategy is completely contingent on a successful vaccine being developed in the very near future. One of which has never been created for after decades of research with various coronaviruses. The end result is virtually inevitable, just delaying it with shutdowns. Sweden realized this and went that route. The goal is obviously mitigation, containment, and treatment to help our hospitals not get overrun. We should only be shutting down if there is fear that our hospitals ICUs get full.

Tornado warning Jefferson county

California shutting down again.

Or those other countries just delayed the inevitable. See Texas, Arizona, Florida, etc..

A good case study is Sweden. They remained completely open this entire time and although they have more deaths then most of the EU per capita they are decreasing in cases. https://www.usnews.com/news/world/articles/2020-07-07/swedens-daily-tally-of-new-covid-19-cases-falls-to-lowest-since-may Health Agency data showed 14 new COVID-19 deaths were recorded on Tuesday, bringing the total to 5,447, more than half of which have occurred at nursing homes and among the elderly receiving home care services.

1000% agree. I got laid off awhile ago and as soon as my cobra ran out I got a sprained ankle playing hockey and my wife had to have emergency kidney stone surgery in the same week. It set me back quite a bit.
