  1. I guess I'm stupid but all of this seems like a logical progression as more data comes in and more compliance takes place. To call something wrong for an initial suggestion and then to continue to say it's wrong as it adjusts with new information is odd to my stiff brain. The only error I see is broadcasting the numbers out without being explicit they will change daily. Sadly everyone was Ji on this one and thought 3' of snow coming in a month the Euro ensemble said so.
  2. One thing I think is cool is seeing the pollution levels reducing in the world. Blue skies and visibility of many miles exposing wonderful views in the world is awesome
  3. Would the mortality rate really be much lower if everyone who was truly infected kept interacting in public as normal? I know chicken egg theory but I think any conversation about numbers and % needs to be framed in the social distancing quarantine vs not doing those things. My opinion of course...I really want this to end soon I'm tired of trying to juggle milk supply daily to my customers...phones ringing all day from Hannaford to Stop and Shop Giant Harris Teeter Publix etc. The volume of orders is through the roof
  4. If this doesn't prove that the Dow and the everyday worker are not connected.
  5. It's a little windy out...like an invisible blizzard
  6. Interesting statement from Dr. Birx that there are a million tests at Abbott labs that are in backlog because the testing machines are down. I want the country back open sooner rather than later but dang let's know how many and where and get this thing totally contained first and then come back strong!
  7. Also saw that less than 0.5% of Virginians have been tested. Really not sure how we contain this beast when we truly don't know how many have it and where. I know there is some sort of sick love affair with the death total but honestly if we don't stop the spread the death total will just continue to accumulate and I don't give a rats ass how fast that happens it will just continue. If we are ok with that then I guess open this bad boy up May 1st...that will make Phineas happy
  8. Apologies if this was discussed or even disputed but the model everyone is using saying the predictions of total deaths keep going down some of the metrics used are that it assumes a Wuhan style lockdown until the end of May to achieve those numbers. Call me skeptical but I'm not sure that's what is happening in the USA
  9. Whew I'm glad this is all over now that the models are backing off. I'm going to the movies
  10. The biggest thing that went wrong is that it didn't snow
  11. So I got all of that sleep last week for my health I guess
  12. It's only +2 - +6 that's like half as warm as January has been so far.
  13. Correct me if I'm wrong but the discussion was the opportunity to get into a better pattern was to start around the 20th with better opportunities later like the 24th on...this weekend chance seems to have thrown off some people's common sense. That said I'm not sure things still look good post 1/20 but still that was still early
  14. Well he just told all of the Real housewives of Loudoun that it locks in next weekend so it better now.
  15. I was living in Annandale at the time so my memory was more ice than snow. I'd guess out here or up by PSU was better
  16. Iad ended up with 19.4" in 93-94 I'd take that from late January on in a heartbeat plus some ice
  17. Other than the mountains out west how much snow has anyone in the PAC NW gotten. I have tons of friends in Seattle and Portland and they don't have squat
  18. I'm not giving up until PSU tells me 47 times
  19. For the record you're really good at explaining things in a clear concise manner. It's just a shame you live in Maryland
  20. Most of my snow is melted already, bare ground everywhere
