Kayla Posted March 11, 2020 Report Share Posted March 11, 2020 it is an argument if it is compared to something else with consequences but different in people’s responses and resources allocated to it. Just like climate change or human affect on the earth. We try to put a number to those things (ie: chances of occurrence and amount of human loss) to determine how much effort/resources should be applied to stopping its affects. Correct. We have a pretty good grasp on cancer cases and mortality rates at this point. Hence why I don't really see the argument there. With COVID-19 we clearly have very limited knowledge on just how bad it could get or not get for that matter. It's obviously the uncertainty that is concerning for so many people especially if you have family members that have underlying health conditions that would normally not be an issue before COVID-19.

Yeah I'm still just not buying that it will actually get as cold as the GFS shows. GFS vs GEM Big difference in how cold the Columbia basin gets and I think the GFS is being too aggressive with that backdoor cold. If we actually had that much cold in the gorge, yeah I think snow to the lowest elevations would be a decent bet but I think we're dealing with the usual FV3 cold bias here. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But China may have stemmed the tide for this season with their quarantines. And most of the country was not quarantined so I think it's good news that new cases have dropped to almost nothing.
