warm humid weather will stop the virus? Corpses Lie For Days As Ecuador Struggles To Keep Up With COVID-19 Deaths Ecuador is one of the smallest countries in South America but it is dealing with one of the region's worst outbreaks of COVID-19, with more than 3,100 identified infections and 120 deaths. The epicenter of the country's outbreak is the Pacific port city of Guayaquil, where bodies are lying in the streets. As a result, the bodies of people who have died in their homes due to COVID-19 and other illnesses often lie for days, wrapped in bed sheets and plastic and decomposing in the tropical heat as relatives watch over them. https://www.npr.org/sections/coronavirus-live-updates/2020/04/03/826675439/corpses-lie-for-days-as-ecuador-struggles-to-keep-up-with-covid-19-deaths

not sure if that is the final total..they have several updates a day

SPRINGFIELD – The Illinois Department of Public Health (IDPH) today announced 1,209 new cases of coronavirus disease (COVID-19) in Illinois, including 53 additional deaths.

I hear ya if you have time a graph of IL, MI, OH would be cool for both cases and deaths since they are all pretty close in population and are in this sub forum I saw one earlier on twitter and was going to post it here but can't find it....it shows the spike in IL and MO and the flat curve in OH not sure what data set you are using but here is a good one ..it even has the total number of tests (state daily 4pm) https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/18oVRrHj3c183mHmq3m89_163yuYltLNlOmPerQ18E8w/htmlview?usp=sharing#

perhaps....he was very aggressive despite the relatively low numbers

the Y-axis should be deaths per 10,000 people or something....98% of people are comparing raw numbers .....Italy has 1/5 the population of the USA deaths per 1,000,000 people Italy 218 Spain 201 UK 35 USA 15 https://www.worldometers.info/coronavirus/

so far OH and been doing better then IL and MI it could be that there isn't one HUGE population center (ie Chicago. Detroit) and therefor OH is less dense in any urban center(has more metros rather then one huge one) but OH also cancelled the primary and MI and IL did not

AY 1 CONVECTIVE OUTLOOK NWS STORM PREDICTION CENTER NORMAN OK 0758 PM CDT SAT MAR 28 2020 VALID 290100Z - 291200Z ...THERE IS AN ENHANCED RISK OF SEVERE THUNDERSTORMS FROM A PORTION OF THE TENNESSEE AND OHIO VALLEYS INTO THE MIDWEST REGION... ..SUMMARY SCATTERED SEVERE STORMS POSING A THREAT FOR TORNADOES, DAMAGING WIND AND LARGE HAIL WILL CONTINUE THIS EVENING INTO THE OVERNIGHT FROM A PORTION OF THE TENNESSEE AND OHIO VALLEYS INTO THE MIDWEST REGION. ..MIDWEST REGION THE WARM SECTOR IS IN THE PROCESS OF BEING PINCHED OFF ACROSS NORTHEAST IA SUGGESTING THE TORNADO THREAT IN THIS REGION SHOULD END BY 02Z. HOWEVER...ADDITIONAL STORMS ARE DEVELOPING FARTHER SOUTH ACROSS NORTHWESTERN AND WEST CENTRAL IL AND WILL MOVE EASTWARD INTO CENTRAL AND EASTERN IL WHERE THE 00Z RAOB FROM LINCOLN INDICATED AROUND 800 J/KG MLCAPE, LARGE LOW-LEVEL HODOGRAPHS AND 80 KT EFFECTIVE BULK SHEAR. THIS ENVIRONMENT WILL CONTINUE TO SUPPORT ORGANIZED STORMS INCUDING SUPERCELLS CAPABLE OF PRODUCING TORNADOES, A COUPLE OF WHICH COULD BE STRONG THIS EVENING. ..TENNESSEE AND OHIO VALLEYS A SECONDARY BRANCH OF THE LOW-LEVEL JET IS FORECAST TO STRENGTHEN TONIGHT FROM MIDDLE TN INTO THE OH VALLEY IN ASSOCIATION WITH A STRONG UPPER JET MOVING THROUGH THE BASE OF A PROGRESSIVE TROUGH SITUATED ACROSS THE MIDWEST. THIS WILL CONTRIBUTE TO MODEST LOW-LEVEL THETA-E ADVECTION WITH MUCAPE FROM 500 TO 1000 J/KG AS WELL AS LARGE HODOGRAPHS WITH 300-400 M2/S2 0-1 KM STORM-RELATIVE HELICITY WITHIN AN OTHERWISE STRONGLY SHEARED ENVIRONMENT. THE BAND OF SCATTERED STORMS DEVELOPING ALONG THE WARM CONVEYOR BELT FROM SOUTHWEST IN INTO WESTERN TN AND NORTHWEST MS WILL LIKELY MAINTAIN EMBEDDED ORGANIZED STRUCTURES INCLUDING SUPERCELLS AND BOWING SEGMENTS CAPABLE OF TORNADOES, DAMAGING WIND AND LARGE HAIL AS THEY DEVELOP EASTWARD INTO THE OVERNIGHT.

ESOSCALE DISCUSSION 0261 NWS STORM PREDICTION CENTER NORMAN OK 0806 PM CDT SAT MAR 28 2020 AREAS AFFECTED...NORTHERN/CENTRAL ILLINOIS CONCERNING...TORNADO WATCH 69... VALID 290106Z - 290200Z THE SEVERE WEATHER THREAT FOR TORNADO WATCH 69 CONTINUES. SUMMARY...NEW TORNADO WATCH WILL BE ISSUED ACROSS MUCH OF NORTHERN/CENTRAL ILLINOIS BY 02Z. DISCUSSION...STRONG CYCLONE IS MATURING ACROSS THE UPPER MIDWEST THIS EVENING WITH SURFACE LOW EXPECTED TO SLOW ITS NORTHEAST MOVEMENT ACROSS NORTHEAST IA OVER THE NEXT SEVERAL HOURS. THIS WILL ALLOW SOUTHWESTERLY FLOW/DRYING TO SURGE NORTHEAST ACROSS IL AND THUNDERSTORMS WILL LIKELY CONTINUE ALONG THE DEMARCATION OF THIS DRYING. FARTHER NORTH, A WELL-DEFINED WARM FRONT (LAKE REINFORCED) CURRENTLY EXTENDS ACROSS SOUTHERN COOK-DE KALB-STEPHENSON COUNTIES. WITH NORTHEASTERLY FLOW OFF OF LAKE MI THIS BOUNDARY MAY STRUGGLE TO ADVANCE NORTH NEAR THE LAKE. 00Z SOUNDING FROM ILX CONTINUES TO SUPPORT SUPERCELLS WITH FAVORABLY STRONG SHEAR AND MODEST BUOYANCY, THOUGH SOME INHIBITION REMAINS JUST ABOVE 850MB. EVEN SO, SURFACE-BASED SUPERCELL THREAT CONTINUES ACROSS THE WARM SECTOR ALONG WITH SOME TORNADO THREAT. FOR THESE REASONS A NEW TORNADO WATCH WILL BE ISSUED BEFORE 02Z EXPIRATION OF WW69.
