China is kinda both of those things sir. As a person in supply chain I can tell you right now it is easily a dictatorial-capitalist society which holds them back severely

I'm saying people with lost incomes are going to be motivated to get out and rob people

The statewide shutdown is ridiculous and should be illegal. It is going to spread pure chaos similar to a hurricane, except there is nowhere to evacuate to. You'll literally have to be armed at all times if something like this were to happen as those who have lost their incomes will become incredibly desperate. I currently am keeping a firearm on me at all times when going into the store with how crazy things are. I mean heck people get mugged all the time during Black Friday, imagine true desperation

They shouldn’t lock anything down other than cities. People should be able to at least go to work and go home

Why would our infrastructure be prepared? Lol there has never been a reason for en masse ventilators and respirators

Yeah people are still working here in SC, just most of the service/retail industry is closed. I'm working from home now (supply chain analyst) and we've got a contingency list where if any of us are hospitalized/die we take over their responsibilities in the meantime. Crazy times we're living in but it was a matter of time until a virus turned into a global pandemic

Meanwhile here in Charleston no one cares lol. I won't lie though temps are regularly above 70° by now and UV light is very effective at killing bacteria

12" of snow is not measly at all lol. That is a legitimate snowstorm, especially during the dry season for us

Wow that is unreal to see. Basically got hit by a Tropical Storm on the southern shores of Lake Michigan today

Unbelievable how winter just died out as we rolled into March. I officially move next week down South and will have recorded my second round of golf this season on Sunday. Bonkers stat for Northern Ohio

Easy rusty. I've seen quite a few tornadoes in chillier than usual temperatures, helicity can do some incredible things with limited instability

Yeah you have to think our typical nighttime lows are around 60-65 in the Summer.

Why's that? It's honestly pretty commonplace to see that up here in Ohio, especially in the Fall

Already 32° here by Toledo. I think the weather people were off and misleading on their 2-4” in the local area. Column has already cooled considerably, I think 5-6” is going to be the number for the majority of the area

One thing not being talked about much is the winds associated with this. Rush hour conditions are going to be absolutely horrible tomorrow in places like Toledo and Detroit

It’s like Mother Nature knows I’m moving and wants me to see legit snow one more time lol

Not only that but it is the geography as well. If it gets going in IA/WI/IL your storms are going to lineup by the time the low approaches. Also typical SW-NE trajectory of low pressures as they gain strength and go poleward means you get farther from the low in the Great Lakes as the storm tracks through. I was based out of Columbus this summer for work and let me just say the Memorial Day Tornado Outbreak was something. Total flashback to June 5-6, 2010 in how charged the atmosphere was after sunset. Helicities were off the charts and everything was spinning

Well well another one leaving the NW Ohio area. I nearly got relocated to CS but it's gonna be Charleston instead for work. The office is out of Boulder correct?

Thanks guys. And yeah hurricane forecasting is going to be interesting for sure with something locally at stake lol. I will miss most weather wise the tornado chasing on the flat country of NW Ohio. It's basically Oklahoma East out here and has made for some awesome intercepts in recent years

I’ve been a poster on here since 2011 and enjoyed these forums quite well. However my work is relocating me to the Charleston SC area so I will not be posting much with you guys anymore. Hope everyone here gets dumped on the last few weeks of winter and has a warm spring! Also cheers to a few solid tornadoes this year lol

Just wanted to chime in here and say hello. I’ve lived in Ohio my entire life and am being relocated to the Charleston area for work so excited to now chat with you guys here in the SE forums. Been a member since 2011 on this site but obviously the snowstorm and tornado posts are going to drop a bit lol.

I'm not the biggest winter guy anyways, I like forecasting snow but severe weather has always been what I lean towards. I'd be in Summerville/Ladson thought as the place is north of the area on 26

Right? One of the best snowstorms of my life, for all intents and purposes it was a blizzard. Strong winds, 6-12" across NW Ohio and roads closed for 36 hours. Saturday snowstorm, and the roads were not drivable until Tuesday really

Yes South Carolina and for work

Just beautiful. To be fair I’m moving to Charleston in a month so I’m owed a solid snowstorm haha
