Josh, that looks like an old Coca-Cola Santa.

They haven’t been shown on the telly here in this area much, but they look pretty darn good tonight. It’s been said already, but Josh Allen is the real deal.

Josh Allen is a stud

There’s a better chance of Josh getting no snow

Hey dude! Been good, how you been? Josh has been pressing me to do another, lol. One of these years.....

Cam is so inaccurate. Plus, their receiving core is atrocious, no TE. Poor play calling by Josh. Surprised they have won 5

Don’t worry, Josh, SE Wayne County always gets screwed. We’ll probably end up with nothing or just a dusting.

Yep. All this sunny, calm weather in November the Winter will NOT remember lol. I mean there's no guarantees in anything, but when you look at certain factors such as a typical active storm track in the Great Lakes during nina's, the somewhat increasing precipitation/snowfall that's been observed in this region in the past few decades, & the unfrozen waters ripe for Lake effect snow, I just cannot see how there's not plenty of fun times for the Great Lakes this Winter. That said, Im really not feeling a beavis/Josh type of Winter with nonstop cold and snow cover.

This actually confirms my suspicion that Haiyan was much higher than 895mb. Josh measured 960mb a few miles from the edge of the eye, no way there was a 65mb pressure drop between him and the eye.

Must be killing Josh M. not being able to chase these beasts recently.

Josh not wanna chase this one?

Hurricane Josh is gonna be sitting on his front porch getting the strongest winds of the storm. Impressive house selection.

It was probably a bit boring for Josh being a minimal hurricane.

KBUF finally mentions snow in the forecast!!! They’ve been slower to react than josh Norman on Derrick Henry’s stiff arm...

He is doing better now, but is a "long hauler." He says that he will be back irritating the board soon. Also, Josh, please forgive me for not mentioning you too. So anyone who posts in our subforum knows at least two people who have been infected.

Here's a pretty cool ENSO - snowfall chart from Josh Timlin; this clearly illustrates many of the ongoing discussion points, especially in terms of setting general expectations for the upcoming winter: https://www.joshtimlin.com/enso-charts-winter

Tossing farther then Derrick Henry tossed Josh Norman with that stiff arm Tuesday night.

Yep this organization has become okay with losing over the years and while you can tell Eichel hates losing when he throws his stick or his helmet in the locker room after a game you don’t see him coming forward as a leader and saying heres what we’re gonna do about it to his teammates. Josh Allen on the other hand is not only a great player but a great leader and makes everyone want to play their hardest 100% of the time on the field and that’s worth almost as much as the on the field talent sometimes.

Josh already admitted earlier this season on Twitter that he would travel to the the Yucatán or Rivera Maya if it was in play for a major. No surprise at all that he is there.

Wow. Josh made it to Cancun. He is the man. He must have more hurricane intercepts than anyone else in the world. This one should be intense. Looking at the graphics the eye should pass around 8am. Hopefully it doesn't speed up so he can get some good daylight video within the eye.

Josh has arrived in Cancún.

The next five to 10 days will be critical for President Donald Trump after his positive test for Covid-19. Doctors warn the illness can suddenly worsen after several days of relatively mild symptoms. That's particularly true for patients with two of the biggest risk factors for serious and even life-threatening complications of the disease: obesity and older age. At 74 and with a body mass index of 30.5, qualifying him as obese, Trump fits both criteria. "I'm worried," Dr. Vin Gupta, a pulmonologist and an affiliate assistant professor at UW Medicine in Seattle, said Friday on NBC's "TODAY." "I've cared for several patients with that double whammy," Gupta said. "If they become sick, if they are symptomatic, they can escalate quickly to needing ICU care." What's more, research has shown men tend to fare worse from Covid-19 than women. White House chief of staff Mark Meadows told reporters Friday that the president was experiencing "mild symptoms" but declined to elaborate. First lady Melania Trump tweeted that she, too, has mild symptoms but is "overall feeling good." A letter from the White House physician confirming the positive test results for both Trumps said they were "well at this time." Only time will tell how the virus will affect them. "The hallmark of this infection is unpredictability," Dr. Michael Saag, an associate dean for global health at the University of Alabama, said. "It is impossible to know once someone gets infected what's going to happen to them clinically." Saag not only treats Covid-19 patients; he had a serious case of the illness in March. "The most common symptom is profound fatigue. Having experienced this infection myself, I can underscore the word profound," Saag said, adding that fatigue is generally the longest-lasting symptom. "I would predict that if he's going to have symptoms, he will be suffering with some degree of fatigue from now through Election Day." It is unknown when the president was infected. That knowledge would be key in directing how his physicians will monitor and potentially treat him. "I try to get as good a handle as I can on when my patient contracted the virus," said Dr. Pieter Cohen, a physician with the Cambridge Health Alliance Respiratory Clinic near Boston. "If the president was exposed to the coronavirus less than five days ago, then this is very early in the infection." Cohen and other doctors who have been caring for Covid-19 patients for months say the infection has two key parts: an initial phase with minimal to no symptoms, followed, for some, by a more severe phase. "Then there is the later, more concerning, days of illness, usually days four through eight but can be later as well," Cohen said. "That is when serious complications, often beginning with difficulty breathing, tend to begin." Dr. Josh Denson, a pulmonary medicine and critical care physician at the Tulane Medical Center in New Orleans, said it's rare for a person to become very sick within the first few days of infection. "This could drag out," Denson said. "If he recovers, it won't be for a week or so. But I've had some patients get critically ill more than 2 to 3 weeks after the initial infection." The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention's guidelines indicate the president should be in isolation for at least 10 days, and should remain in a "sick room or area and away from other people." It is likely that during that time, Trump's oxygen levels will be carefully monitored using a device called a pulse oximeter, Gupta said. Monitoring oxygen levels is critical as they can plummet in people with Covid-19, even if they don't feel sick. "His physicians will be checking his oxygen level. Is he short of breath? Does he have a fever? Does he have chills or a cough? Extreme vigilance here is warranted," he added. Saag also said that shortness of breath, especially when walking, could be a key predictor for a complication like pneumonia. Patients on the verge of entering that second phase of illness may develop a dry cough. "I can tell because it's hard to get an exam done with these patients. I'll say, 'take a breath' and they'll get about halfway through and just start coughing," Saag said. Other symptoms may include difficulty concentrating and chest pain. Doctors may treat any symptoms the president may develop, but there is no known treatment proven to prevent Covid-19 patients from moving from the initial stage of illness to the second, potentially more dangerous stage, Cohen said. It is possible that Trump's doctors could offer him remdesivir, convalescent plasma, or a similar type of treatment called monoclonal antibodies. All of those require intravenous infusions, however, and remdesivir is given over a five-day period. The Food and Drug Administration has issued emergency use authorizations for both remdesivir and plasma, but studies of those treatments are still ongoing. With potential benefit comes potential risk. "Like a lot of things with this epidemic," Saag said, "this is a giant experiment."

You left off our very own AmericanWx member "Hurricane Man" Josh... Sent from my LML212VL using Tapatalk

Out of curiosity I went back and checked the obs from Laura in Lake Charles. It may not have captured the maximum pressure drop rate there since the sensor failed at 132 mph in the eyewall, but they dropped 23 mb in 1 hour. This was 25 mb in about one tenth of the time. Maybe some of the most intense hurricanes have a quicker drop rate than what Josh experienced, but this derecho was something else. We know about the extreme pressure drops that can occur in tornadoes (even within seconds) but I never thought an MCS was capable of something this dramatic.

I checked and it's actually way, way greater. For instance, Josh's censors in Michael at Panama City peaked at ~1.5mb/min. This is 3.0-3.5mb/min, obviously. I'm interested in the context of a reading like that relative to other MCVs/Derechoes so I've been looking for comparable data, particularly BAMEX.
