  1. My guess is that there is some political strategy to this, to soften the “blow” when it becomes an order. “We asked you to comply, and you didn’t. So it’s now a stay at home order.” Will be interesting to see how well employers comply.
  2. I believe there were similar dissenters/protesting when seat belts were mandated. Big difference is that if you don’t wear a seatbelt, you’re only harming yourself. My risk of car accident death is unchanged by your decision. That’s not the same with the mask mandate
  3. Pritzker mentioned more restrictions during his news conference yesterday, and I would be almost certain that my region (region 1) will be the first to have further mitigation restrictions. Yesterday we had a mind boggling positivity rate of 15.8% with 633 new cases. The university continues to be a hot spot of cases, and heading into the holidays will be a time bomb of new cases. "Sorry I gave you COVID grandma, but that turkey and stuffing really is to die for."
  4. And with deaths being a lagging indicator, the uptick in cases will translate to a significant upswing in deaths soon.
  5. I believe that takes IL over 10,000 deaths total.
  6. Looks like we may get some baller late fall weather to start the month, who knows from there.
  7. Ballin' from Halloween to Valentines Day. Then Morch 2.0
  8. Those hybrid clippers seem to always overperform as well, at least locally. I will happily skip the models constantly shitting the bed and each storm becoming a strung out piece of garbage.
  9. As long as we get out of the Late Oct-Early Nov storm, 2 months of nothing, then winter until May pattern; I will be happy.
  10. Ride the drought train! We’ve got room for everyone!
  11. Yeah. Raked pretty good with some large trees down. Overall tame compared to the stuff in Iowa earlier
  12. Had what appeared to be a quick spin up dropping right over sycamore. Never got more than halfway down
  13. CAPE through the roof in N. IL. (4500-5000) powder keg ready to blow.
  14. Hopefully all the looted businesses in the loop reinforce that plywood covering the windows...
  15. Absolutely insane for a non-tornadic storm.
  16. Man, the Chicago metro is screwed with the path this line is maintaining. Gonna be wild for @A-L-E-K to watch this thing roll in.
  17. SPC throwing out the "D" word. SUMMARY...A derecho will rapidly progress across eastern Iowa and northern Illinois this afternoon.
  18. Moderate risk pretty much I-80ish to the WI border from IA across IL to IN
