  1. My two cents here, but they need to really ramp up mask production and require it for going out in public. Then May 1st we re-open everything with better PPE for ALL Americans. The social distancing measures seem like they have done well, but we cannot keep our economy shut down past this month or the cure is going to be worse than the virus. I don't think people realize we're going to be in a legitimate economic depression when this is over, but how long is lasts is going to be the difference.
  2. I think tornado season will roar this year, hurricane season is a different story. At the end of the day it's all about how troughy Summer is
  3. I see this thing going down drastically in May. Social distancing seems to be making a positive impact and most are taking this seriously. I think banning people from parks and stuff is too extreme though, if anything just arrest people for not staying 6 feet apart
  4. I don't see us here in Charleston getting too much in the way of severe weather unless that warm front hurries itself on through. Lots of good ingredients hanging out just offshore that would make this a true severe event. I notice the air is rather cold behind this front, only 50 degrees currently in Huntsville. That's some Ohio type of temperature for 3 PM a day from April
  5. Tons of QLCS tornadoes in this line. I'll admit I am shocked how strong these helicity numbers are, but think the lack of instability north of Columbus, GA may be too much of hinderance for this to be very widespread. It is early in the afternoon though
  6. Instability, shear and helicity seem to be just south of Albany, GA at the present time and hugging the bulk of the line racing through the south. If forecasts are to be true, may see quite a bit of warm sector action today in southern GA. IMO with the high likelihood of quite a few wind reports with that line, in addition to decent tornado chances ahead of it and embedded within, the SPC should go ENH ASAP

  8. Would not be shocked to see some rotation with anything popping up along that front
  9. A noticeably cooler period of weather upcoming for Charleston. I cannot believe how cool the upcoming week will be after constantly breaking 80 the last few weeks consistently. 62 for a high on Wednesday and then 70s for the foreseeable future
  10. Yeah at some places. Mostly though things are just getting wiped down constantly and our beaches are closed to non-residents. Other than that no one is really following these guidelines
  11. If anything this is proof that America's healthcare system is superior to Italy's. We have more cases and far fewer deaths
  12. This weather cannot make up its mind. Had all the windows open last night, put a little bit of a chill in the house when I woke up. Then tomorrow thru Sunday we'll have the AC on full blast
  13. The big problem with this in America is our first test did not work. That was the greatest failure by our country, we simply do not prepare in case the testing does not work. That's like showing up to the golf course without tees, lol it's unreasonable to predict that. I think this thing will be on the down turn by the end of April, everyone seems to be taking it seriously enough that it should flatten the curve
  14. Right. This isn't the Plains where you get extremely unstable atmospheres. 10 C°/KM is completely unstable correct?
  15. I imagine there will be a pretty nice outflow boundary laid down as well. Helicity levels are pretty darn high for today with a decent environment
  16. I think the warm air slows it down a bit, simply because UV light burns it off of outside surfaces and people are more inclined to naturally be distant from each other due to the nicer weather. Regardless right now I think we have a better chance of getting sick from these wild temperature swings, to go from 89 on Saturday, 61 yesterday and 59 right now is wild. Then Friday & Saturday we're right back at it making a run at 90.
  17. 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
  18. I'm saying people with lost incomes are going to be motivated to get out and rob people
  19. 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
  20. They shouldn’t lock anything down other than cities. People should be able to at least go to work and go home
  21. Why would our infrastructure be prepared? Lol there has never been a reason for en masse ventilators and respirators
  22. 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
  23. 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
  24. Easy rusty. I've seen quite a few tornadoes in chillier than usual temperatures, helicity can do some incredible things with limited instability
  25. Yeah you have to think our typical nighttime lows are around 60-65 in the Summer.
