  1. Right? Apparently it’s where Sweet Tea was invented too
  2. I mean then what’s the point of any warnings or advisories other than for tornadoes? 3-6” of snow is simply going to be forecasted with a bulletin? What about for dense fog?
  3. Ha I tell people this all the time, we basically have Jacksonville weather. If you look at the climate data they're super similar. Only about a 3-5 degree difference October thru April
  4. Looking at the models it looks like Spring is safely here
  5. Only thing complaining here are the sinuses & lungs (mild Asthma) I will say though in a weather related comment, over the Holidays I traveled home to Ohio to spend time with the immediate family as my work is remote. It is staggering how rough the winter cold & air is on your body compared to living in Charleston. Was just ripping through the lotion & chapstick, & drinking hot tea throughout the day as my sinuses felt so so bad. It's noticeable how much healthier I feel living in this region
  6. Man a dewpoint of 69° in February is insane
  7. Well folks the pollen has returned. Truck was covered in dust this morning
  8. What a wonderful stretch of weather! Got a solid sun tan out by the pool today. Let’s hope we send the cold air packing and get severe weather season rolling
  9. Deborah Birx’s interview on Face the Nation was very illuminating. She said she knew this would be hell because from her experience in Africa, “Pandemics are always political”. Highly recommend watching this on YouTube.
  10. Interesting to see this as my Grandmother who was a museum curator for decades had a comment on this with the exact opposite thoughts. When the pandemic faded 100 years ago almost overnight people quit wearing masks. When the Civil War ended many photos were destroyed as people simply wanted to forget what happened and get back to normal (this is what made her job quite difficult in finding these documents/slides). The general public has an amazing ability to forget tragedy, and I'd expect this will be the same. Even now we cheer the fact that new hospitalizations is only at 52,000 a day, still a stunning number. Even with masks, I'd say it was not until July that it became completely prevalent throughout the United States. I remember going to the grocery store in May last year and receiving comments for wearing one in line with maybe only 30% of customers actually wearing one. I'm interested to see what happens with all this going forward. From a societal perspective I'd say this is easily the most turbulent time since 2001-2002
  11. I miss sports so much. I’ll wear a Hazmat suit if I have to
  12. What a gorgeous day! 71° and sunny currently at home
  13. Found dandelions today! From the looks of it, Spring is finally starting after weeks of cold rain
  14. Meanwhile I have dandelions in my yard. Amazing stretch of winter weather for the entire Midwest, parts of the South and Great Lakes region
  15. Yeah I was going to say I’ve got photos where we had to dig out the mailbox that winter
  16. Yay! 870 cases, 5% positive. Love to see it
  17. Man how awesome would it be if 12” fully materializes for Toledo on Tuesday morning. For those big winters in the middle part of the last decade I’d regularly snowshoe through the woods and local parks after these storms. Definitely something you miss in a tropical climate
  18. I like 6-9" for the Toledo area. Do have a little worry with as cold and dry as it will be that this eats into the QPF a bit.
  19. If I’m not mistaken it’s not going to even get into the 20s for Toledo during this entire event. Should help with the ratios quite a bit. Blowing and drifting is going to be insane this week
  20. Or they could be one of the worst forecast offices in the country. Even Toledo TV mets frequently take shots at them and the "I-75 wall"
  21. It'd be nice to see some sunshine here in Charleston. Feel like I'm back in the Great Lakes
  22. Why is Joseph Goebbels being discussed on a weather forum lol
  23. I have not. Last hike I had was in October I believe. Quite a few snowstorms though just outside of the Piedmont, I'd say elevations from Hickory on up have faired quite well. I was in Charlotte during a sleet storm two weekends ago (it quickly melted).
