Hoosier

Nevermind. I read it again and think I get it now. I guess it means Monday already had 35 deaths, so adding 24 new to that day results in 59. Nov 18 already had 57 deaths, so adding 2 new to that day results in 59 deaths.

That last sentence makes no sense to me.

Seeing signs that the drops in some of the Midwest states are flatlining and not continuing to drop. Not good.

At least the Canadian is still playing ball.

If you're psychologically mind gaming it, not having agreement on the phase at this point isn't the worst thing. However, you'd want to see that start to turn in the next 24 hours of model runs because we aren't terribly far out from the players starting to get on the field.

The Euro is pretty spectacular. The anomaly map speaks for itself. Given the area involved, it looks more like something you would expect to see later in December or January, not at the turn of November into December. Some traits of some of your all-time classic storms on that run.

It's still there in some form. Take that as a victory at this point. On another note, I just noticed that this one would fall on the anniversary of the 11/30-12/1, 2006 storm.

No, that's next week.

I think that is record daily cases for a state.

In the past 8 months, I have learned and been reminded about winterwx21's health and fitness more than I ever thought was possible. On the heart rate thing... you don't have to be an elite level athlete to have a resting rate in the low/mid 40s. I know, because I do, and I'm nowhere near an elite level athlete. I lift quite often and do modest amounts of plain cardio, but almost never run. I am very cognizant of magnesium intake (which is something that many are deficient in) and that may be a factor in the low resting heart rate.

lol Considering there is a storm being modeled with some consistency (talking about a storm anywhere, not the details), sure there's a chance. Obviously a ways to go yet.

Would this have gotten a map if it were January?

Anything is possible. I'd say better than 50/50 odds of a decent storm somewhere in the sub.

Tuesdays often suck for deaths with the weekend lag in reporting, and today is no different. Over 100 in IN. I think that is only the 2nd time that has happened in the state during the entire pandemic.

Looks like a general 0.5-2" fell across Chicago metro.

Indeed. Some have done pretty well, but others not so much. I have posted about Notre Dame a few times. They are now at 12% of the university (staff + students) infected in the past 3 months. That is a pretty bad percentage in that amount of time, especially because everybody should know by now what helps to slow the spread. It is a little tough to make it stick in people that age though. People may think so what, it's college kids and they're not as vulnerable, but the problem is it spreads out into the community.

Do you mean universities or K-12?

Down to 33 here. Will at least allow some surfaces to cool to near freezing for several hours prior to precip onset.

I don't know how much of a problem this will be early on (when higher risk individuals are vaccinated), but if a healthy 25 year old goes to get vaccinated in spring and experiences some side effects, you have to wonder if some of them won't bother to return for round 2.

You're just jealous that we're not talking about South Paradise... I mean South Carolina. Have y'all eradicated covid yet?

You may have been cutting your calories too much too quickly. Hard to say without knowing more. I peaked around 230 lbs years ago and then got down to 180. Have been a little lax and rebounded to 190, and tend to fluctuate within a few pounds of that number. I had the best success cutting down on the junk/refined stuff and starting out slightly under caloric maintenance and gradually backing off from there without ever going too low. Also personal preference was to fit the meals into about an 8-10 hour window, though caution is warranted on that part for anyone who is a known diabetic.

Then wake up a little earlier and do it.

Not seeing that. You sure?

I'm not the one talking about exercising outdoors. It can be done indoors where the kids are a room away.

2 hours per week comes out to 15-20 minutes per day. It's hard for me to buy that people can't find that amount of time sometime during the day. Get up a little earlier or do it after the kids go to bed. Heck, if not 2 hours per week, then do the most you can. It's not about getting into marathon shape or preparing for a bodybuilding contest... just improving on your health and fitness. If you're only modestly overweight, that is something you can work on right now and perhaps make it statistically less likely that you'll develop severe covid (important to point out that severe covid is not necessarily the same thing as long-hauler covid). If you're obese, then make it a long term goal and do whatever you can to minimize your risk of catching covid in the next few months.
