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

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

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.

It has been a long, mild winter. Basically winter conditions from Mid November until now, not the snowiest year but it is seeming to drag on quite a bit this year

Agreed. I cannot ever remember a November like this with constant snow throughout

So far Toledo has received 2.5" of rain this month and 1.3" of snow. Haha what a January

That lake temp in the western basin has dropped off pretty nice into the 40s now. Still can't believe it's close to 60 in the two deep spots of Lake Erie. Just a very long and mild growing season

I disagree. While it was pretty humid in those later months, May-mid July was actually a terrific dry heat. Wasn't until late July that the major humidity kicked in

Yes I had a big one fall at my house and about 10,000 were without power

Now at 5" of snow here in Bowling Green Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Currently getting snow flurries off Lake Erie. So so rare for NW Ohio to get LE but it looks like even an inch will fall over towards Port Clinton Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Lot of accidents out here in NW Ohio. The fog was so bad in town in BG I could only see one stoplight at a time

You should see it out here bud. To see almost every river except the Blanchard hitting a Major flood stage with top 10 all time crests in June is crazy to see. These fields with poor drainage have essentially turned into lakes with many farmers losing quite a bit of crop Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Yeah April was nuts as far as lack of rain but we have received quite a bit this week Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Officially hit 91 here south of Toledo Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Nothing quite like being sunburnt still and it being 40 out Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

I like the 6-10" prediction with maybe a little leeway for higher totals. Either way double digit snowfalls in the wide open region of NW Ohio will equal the area being crippled for a few days

To add to that on my buddy's pond that we play hockey on we went from no ice two weeks ago to now almost a foot thick

Chinook my dad works right by there and his car was reading -10 so I do believe it

As an aspiring emergency manager I like your comments. I'll admit I think meteorologists need to be more up front about tornadoes as well. Every warning says "strong rotation" when clearly it's obvious the difference between a baby couplet and a large mesocyclone in an atmosphere ripe for violent twisters. I also know you're worry for all storm warnings. Right after a nearby community in 2010 was hit by an EF4 it was unreal how many calls and texts and tweets I would get about an approaching basic severe thunderstorm. One buddy of mine went to the basement! It's crazy how gunshy people are of the weather after a major tornado rips through. I mean just this year the skywarn meeting in that county had 250 people attend, that's insane for a very rural county
