  1. what does this even mean?
  2. Once again this thread is just proving how polarizing online discussions become. We either get people complaining about people being out and about without masks or sharing images that make beaches look much more crowded than they are or sharing fake stories about how the new world order has brought this disease upon us to destroy our freedoms and parroting some online information from very questionable sources. Very few people here are actually discussing a productive way to handle this disease.
  3. forecast has lows in the 30s for the next 7 days. Don't know if we can break any records but next Monday would be our best shot with the record low being only 29. This morning temps only got down to 40. about 4 degrees above the predicted, maybe this trend will continue
  4. also disappointed but not shocked by the anti vaccination thoughts here. it doesn't make your immune system weaker, it's provoking the exact same response in your body as if you actually got the disease, that's why it's effective. Though maybe you are right and we should go back to having 15 million deaths a year due to smallpox and 500,000 deaths from polio each year. There's a reason life expectancy has gone up so much in the past 100 years and its not because we're eating more cheeseburgers.
  5. This will be inherently more deadly than the flu because no one has any prior immunity from previous exposure or a vaccine like millions upon millions do every flu season, this is a fact that cannot be denied or argued.
  6. Yeah I remember when everyone could get a test in March. And 60 million antibody tests would be available by the end of April. Lots of people make lots of promises that are rarely fulfilled
  7. It’s mostly still the meat packing plant outbreaks in Green Bay but there were a lot of new cases in Milwaukee and Kenosha counties as well
  8. Some convection with 10k ft bases in southern LOT CWA. Pretty cool stuff
  9. Todays 12z GFS at 192 hrs would give Green Bay the lowest May 500mb heights on record based on sounding climatology
  10. I’m gonna keep troll posting 240+ GFS solutions nice front end thump here. Too bad it changes over to rain so quickly. Wonder how road temps will be
  11. https://www.weather.gov/grb/052847_snowstorm Was poking around at info about late season snowfalls and man some of this stuff is nuts
  12. won't happen verbatim but a sample of the airmasses we'll be dealing with
  13. too much festering precip. oh well, our peak severe season doesn't really start for another month
  14. May 3-10 or so looks like it could be very cool for the time of year, especially in the eastern part of the subforum
  15. i'll be out if anything tracks into S WI, gotta get my storm chances in considering I most likely won't be able to go to the plains to chase this year
  16. yeah we are only catching 10% cases so in most states the rate of cases is just the amount of testing. A better method of seeing how many people are infected in each state is to count the deaths and assume the fatality rate is around 0.5-0.7% and calculate the cases from that.
  17. I think a lot of the current spread is in places that people aren't able to social distance (prisons, work at meat packing plants, health care workers, etc.)
  18. How do you propose infecting 80% of the population asap without massively overloading the hospital system. 20% of NYC got infected over 2 months and their system was on the brink of being overloaded.
  19. the infection rate map mostly mirrors the testing rate map which is a good indicator that we're not catching all the cases
  20. looking like a trend to a weak la nina as summer goes on and atlantic/gom temps are above average. Wonder if we will have a couple tropical systems impact the midwest
  21. that would mean the actual infections have been about 10x the reported infections, if not slightly more.
  22. Yeah definite trend upwards with temps, also no lows forecast below 36 in the point so the last freeze may have already happened here. Also dewpoints don't look to drop below 20 any more which my skin will definitely appreciate
