People need to vote!!

Nearly 40 million people have voted so far..Nearing 30% of the 2016 turnout.. I'm not sure these rally's and debates mean anything anymore lol You either love him or hate him, not much in-between.. The Republicans are taking a chance with flooding the polls on election day given many states will have less polls, long lines, possibility of bad weather etc..

Always 10days away lol

Another decent soaker..

Still receiving some showers of rain, little over 1" since last night, 45°..

All my beautiful colors are gone

Looks like a rainy few days ahead.. A cold front crossing the area early this morning will stall from the western Southern Tier to Central NY from late this morning through Tuesday. Several waves of low pressure will ripple along the stalled frontal zone, producing widespread, beneficial rain across the entire region. A mid level shortwave and upper level jet segment will cross the eastern Great Lakes this morning through mid afternoon, with associated forcing and mid level flow adjustments supporting a baroclinic wave running northeast along the stalled frontal zone. This will support widespread rain today across the entire region. There will likely be a brief break in the widespread rain from mid to late afternoon through early this evening, although abundant and deep low level moisture may still support fairly widespread drizzle and/or light rain. Another mid level shortwave and jet segment will then cross the eastern Great Lakes later this evening through the overnight, supporting another round of widespread rainfall. This second batch of widespread rain will then taper off from southwest to northeast Tuesday morning as the frontal wave moves off into eastern NY and New England. There may still be some drizzle left behind through Tuesday afternoon in some locations, especially across the higher terrain. Total rainfall from today through Tuesday will likely reach 0.75-1.0 inch in many areas, with a few locations across the Southern Tier and eastern Lake Ontario region exceeding 1 inch. Low clouds and patchy fog will become a common theme from late this morning through Tuesday morning as abundant low level moisture locks in on the cool side of the stalled frontal zone. The fog may become somewhat more widespread with lower visibilities across higher terrain where the stratus intersects the hilltops. Temperatures will be quite cool, with highs today struggling to reach 50 in many areas. Temperatures will remain fairly steady tonight, with highs only in the lower 50s Tuesday in most locations. Areas from near the PA state line through the Finger Lakes to Oswego County may reach the mid to upper 50s Tuesday if the stalled frontal zone drifts a little north and west. && .SHORT TERM /TUESDAY NIGHT THROUGH THURSDAY NIGHT/... Shortwave over the upper Midwest and associated sfc low will take aim at the western Great Lakes Tuesday night, then the whole complex passes to our northwest during the day Wednesday. As this occurs, the frontal boundary residing near the Lower Lakes shift back north as a warm front Tuesday night. Still anticipating a few showers with the warm front, then a brief lull in precipitation will occur until the front returns as a cold front early Wednesday afternoon. With the cold front, best forcing appears like it will reside across the North Country and St. Lawrence River Valley. Should also be enough forcing immediately along the front to produce a narrow band of showers. Have bumped up POPs to reflect this scenario across the forecast area and especially across the North Country. Overall, should be a fair amount of dry time Wednesday and mild conditions. Highs will peak in the upper 60s to the low and mid 70s across the Genesee Valley and Finger Lakes region.

Euro day 10.. Probably would see some flakes on the backside..

Canadian same time frame..

Gfs back to having a snow event at months end..

We have had 11 night below freezing so far..Guess that's what happens when you move away from the lake and add a little elevation lol

Made it down to 26° overnight, looks like will be waiting a while longer for our first flakes, globals don't have much of interest in the next 10-14 days..

Yup, more research is needed.. Just like people that become more ill have more antibodies according to a small study.. People who were sicker had a stronger immune response, Bhattacharya said. “The people sampled from the ICU had higher levels of antibodies than people who had milder disease.” He doesn’t yet know what that will mean for long-term immunity

While it rare you can get the coronavirus twice. Dr. Anthony Fauci, the director of the National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases said this week health officials are beginning to see "a number of cases" reported as reinfections It's also not"lifetime" immunity.. Researchers from the University of Arizona found antibodies that protect against infection can last for at least five to seven months after a Covid-19 infection.

What's the purpose of herd immunity? Lol Just so you don't have to wear a mask lol It's not like the country is still shut down..If people wanted to get sick they would, government is not gonna make people do it..Zero percent chance..

Nearing 1/5 of the 2016 election, already.. Obviously we have no idea how many will show up at the polls on November 3rd..

Well out into next weekend and into the early part of the last week of October, some guidance is suggesting a large cold air mass dropping south into the upper Midwest. 850H temps within the center of this cool airmass are approaching -20C in Western Ontario. While this is a long way out, and well to our northwest, this looks to be the coldest airmass of the season and will works its way east toward the region.

Euro!!! (Practicing for winter) Has some flakes at the end of it's run lol

Little bit of lake effect rain, sitting at about 3/4" of rain since last night..

Some frost advisories issued for this evening..

Could be the first actual accumulation in the Northeast/New England with this next system..

A vaccine for COVID-19 could be widely available as soon as this April, according to Dr. Anthony Fauci — a timeline that runs slightly longer than President Donald Trump’s previous predictions. Fauci, director of the National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases, made the assertion during an interview with CBS News Wednesday, saying a vaccine “will likely be [available] within the first quarter of 2021, by let’s say April of 2021.” Trump has for months been targeting the release of a vaccine by Nov. 3 — election day for the US — even going so far as to say that one could be released within the next few weeks. “We could even have it during the month of October,” he said during a press conference last month. “The vaccine will be very safe and very effective and it will be delivered very soon. You could have a very big surprise coming up.” Health and Human Services Secretary Alex Azar was also slightly more conservative with his estimates, telling a Goldman Sachs Healthcare Conference last week, “We project having enough for every American who wants a vaccine by March to April 2021.” In the interview, Fauci expressed caution at expecting a vaccine too soon, saying, “that would be predicated on the fact that all of the vaccines that are in clinical trials have been proven to be safe and effective.” Johnson and Johnson paused their vaccine study on Sunday after a participant came down with an “unexplained illness.” Eli Lilly also paused an antibody treatment trial Tuesday, citing a “potential safety concern.” Meanwhile, almost 40,000 participants have signed up for studies that would involve getting intentionally exposed to COVID-19 after receiving an experimental vaccine.

Doesn't sound like that to me lol The head of the World Health Organization said Monday that allowing the novel coronavirus to spread in an attempt to reach herd immunity was “simply unethical.” The remark was a sharp rebuke of the approach amid mounting new infections around the world. Recent days have seen the most rapid rise in cases since the pandemic began in March. “Never in the history of public health has herd immunity been used as a strategy for responding to an outbreak, let alone a pandemic,” WHO Director-General Tedros Adhanom Ghebreyesus said at a Monday media briefing. “It is scientifically and ethically problematic.”

Obviously take it with a "grain of salt". Link

Bored lol
