I remember euro was late but arguably (compared to 1/7) both were? I think it’s a win for gfs but not a destroyer. Gfs had it in the middle range and it took euro longer but still in middle range I think but I wasn’t keeping score....
It’s 59 in RIC, now 49 at BWI/DCA, 59 at WAL. If I were one of the weenies there I wouldn’t have a warm and fuzzy feel. My call is no one in the cities of RIC/DCA/BWI exceeds 4 inches.
Back to covid......daughter lost the sore throat and fever and just now has a stuffed nose. I was reading that omicron is less severe because it seems to be mainly upper pharynx sparing the lungs. That kind of matches the experience of all of my recent relatives and friends who have had it over th e holidays. Cautiously optimistic that this is the trend with variants going forward to keep viable hosts. Hopefully when it hits largely unvaccinated areas it stays this way and we get some accurate reporting from mainstream soursces.
