  1. 2020 was supposed to be second coming of 1990 and busted hard so it would only be fair if we get that emotional roller coaster again
  2. I agree. A super clipper would probably leave Iowa high and dry and a gulf low or panhandle hook would either leave Minneapolis in the ice box or give rain to ohio
  3. I'm setting the O/U on days with snow cover here during the month of December at 5.
  4. America is a land of excess. It’s also a land of overworking. These things lead to a lot of obesity and health problems. It is simple to lose weight but it is not easy especially for someone who is poor or uneducated. I lost 55 pounds since March but I have a lot of luxury and privilege that others don’t. We need to be a healthier nation but that doesn’t mean we can’t try to take care of everyone with this current pandemic. Also Charleston is cool but only from October through March
  5. maybe a front end thump next Tuesday before switching to rain. At least in Wisconsin and Minnesota.
  6. man I was feeling disillusioned about the posting on this board but this Beavis post made me realize the real americanwx is back
  7. I miss bickering about stupid weather stuff
  8. Not looking great but if the PV stays strong like last year we’ll still get shots of snow and cold
  9. I doubt that, most states are on the upswing in cases besides the Dakotas and maybe Wisconsin. Also we are still waiting on a few more states to drop today, including part of california, kansas and nebraska
  10. https://www.nytimes.com/2020/11/17/health/coronavirus-immunity.html Good news today, study shows that immunity can last for many years for 90% of patients. Obviously contradicts some of the other things we have heard but falls in line with the idea that rapid reinfections are a small minority of cases
  11. cases down vs. the same day last week for the first time in a long time in WI. Hospitalizations still up 180 and a record 92 deaths today
  12. Rapper Jeremih is in the ICU on a ventilator with COVID. He's 33 with no known preexisting conditions.
  13. guess that means that this is much more deadly than we thought, if cases are much lower. yikes
  14. I like to base it off of current deaths. For North Dakota it’s around 16% but in reality it’s a bit higher since death counts are delayed
  15. Wyoming with 971 cases today. More than doubling their previous daily record.
  16. record number of cases and deaths in Wisconsin today(6114 and 62 respectively)
  17. small sample sizes and anecdotes aren't reality
  18. lol golf courses were open here after the first couple weeks of the pandemic. which is when they would open for the season anyway
  19. One important thing for mental health is for people to realize there will be a time when we are past this pandemic. It may not be for another 6 months to a year but there will be a time we can regain a sense of normalcy. Even if it means getting a vaccine every six months it'll be worth it. Especially as we get into these winter months with things like seasonal depression and family stress it's important to keep a hopeful attitude about the future.
  20. The lack of sea ice on the Siberian side of the arctic is really causing some interesting patterns.
  21. Wisconsin up to about 30 deaths per 100,000 from Covid. Still only about 40% of South Carolina's death rate of 74 per 100,000. Still a long ways from having as bad of an outbreak.
  22. I think people forget how nature works sometimes. You could get Covid from someone being by them for 1 minute. The odds are much lower than 15 minutes but its still there. Just like there's no magic barrier at 6 feet. Sure it goes down further away from that but its not like there's a magical barrier where someone 7 feet away can't give you covid.
  23. people like to apply reasoning for disease spread to fit their personal beliefs. in reality humans are imperfect and this disease can spread easily so there are many, many variables for disease spread and not just one specific government decision.
