Definitely rare! 3k shows a nice line of storms.

My buddy took his test on the 7th with no results yet. Just texted him and results are taking up to 2 weeks. He started showing symptoms after going to a July 4th party. Lives in San Diego.

SPC discussion: There is some concern that this precipitation and/or cloud debris may limit diurnal destabilization across eastern OH into parts of western PA/NY. Regardless, modestly enhanced (30-40 kt) mid-level flow coupled with even weak destabilization along/ahead of the front should prove sufficient for storm organization by early Thursday afternoon. Multicells and small bowing line segments should be the primary storm mode given the linear nature of the low-level forcing mechanism (front), but an embedded supercell or two cannot be ruled out with 30-40 kt of effective bulk shear expected. Strong to damaging winds should be the main threat as low-level lapse rates modestly steepen ahead of the morning storms/clouds. Some enhancement to the low-level flow suggests a brief tornado cannot be ruled out either, mainly across eastern OH and western PA/NY vicinity. These strong to severe storms should quickly weaken into central PA/NY by Thursday evening as low-level moisture and related instability decrease with eastward extent.

MCV associated with current convection over Illinois will push a series of weak fronts through our region on Thursday...and this will lead to some showers and strong to severe storms. Damaging wind gusts main threat...but backing winds blo 4kft could provide enough shear for isolated tornado. MOST prone time for severe weather will be from 2 PM til 10 PM Thursday...although its possible that convection could be problematic before that time. Far western New York remains in a slight risk area as defined by the Storm Prediction Center... with the remainder of the forecast area in a marginal risk area for severe weather. Strong convection Thursday evening weakens to scattered showers overnight.

Hit 88 degrees here today.

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.

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.
