The COVID-19 pandemic and how it is affecting my life.

April 6th coronavirus update III

There is now not even 1,000 cases shy of 365k cases in the U.S. now. I am updating this from my other phone as the phone the last two updates today were created is charging currently. I went outside and three little kids were out there. They were all older than I thought, and we had fun together since I was bored. We went exploring in the woods, and we were looking for the moon to rise (it is going to be a spectacular supermoon for the next 3 or 4 nights). I should have stayed away based on the governor's orders, but I had no choice but to play with the kids since when I go outside there typically is nothing to do but go in the woods and climb trees, or just sit in dirt, as I am not allowed to take any of my electronic devices outside except for my tablet, which was also charging.

I also looked at the weather and heard that there is a slight risk of severe thunderstorms tomorrow for my area. If it gets any worse in forecast, then a book on updated weather may be warrantied, so stay tuned for that possibility as well. The risk mainly says a risk for large hail and very destructive winds, but a tornado is possible as well, but not as likely as the large hail and damaging winds, which is good as the last thing our area needs is a tornado when it comes to the weather conditions in this pandemic. I will be watching it closely and watch for the weather service's severe weather outlook as it is issued again at 8am tomorrow, or sooner if forecast conditions change. I really do hope there isn't a tornado, as just at the end of March, on the 28th, a tornado warning was issued for my area and the sky looked almost as green as the greenest grass in my yard. Thankfully the storm missed my part of the city, and didn't produce a tornado, but it still brought hail, reported to range in size from quarter-dollar coins to golf balls to even as big as half-dollar coins and probably gusty winds to the southern neighborhoods of the city. The damage there has probably by now been mostly repaired I hope, but with another severe weather risk what got fixed probably will get damaged again if we get a direct hit from a severe storm. And they are coming from the Lake Erie areas, so even if they aren't severe, the rainfall rates will pack a punch if the lake is warm enough, and considering we've had the warmest winter in decades, the lake is probably pretty warm for this time of year, and maybe perhaps even piping hot for this time of year. Typically our average temperature is 60 degrees. We have the chance for highs Tuesday and Wednesday to range from 65 to 70, maybe some regions 70+ degrees Fahrenheit (for you British people who use Celsius thats 21°C+). And the day after we saw the tornado warning the high was near 80 degrees (26°C) and I had to have a freaking window open IN MARCH! FOR JUNE THAT IS NORMAL, BUT FOR MARCH IT IS VERY UNUSUAL. Well, a couple year back it was just as warm IN FEBRUARY! Well, because of Coronavirus I thought global warming would weaken for a short period, and some ice caps would reform, but it appears since we are still going to be oddly warm for early April it appears that global warming has still proven that it is still packing quite the punch. But pollution has been dying off, so maybe our temperatures in May will be normal all month long and we won't have a 90+ degree day or two in May. If that happens, that would be wonderful and we won't see cold then hot. But once they find a vaccination for the coronavirus, then global warming rates will return to their original state by 2021. That is your final update hopefully for the coronavirus for today, as I would hate to have a fourth update on this, and if it happens it means this isn't going to be a good news thing.
Please stay at home and head the governor of your state's orders as much as possible. Wash your hands and wear a mask when going out in public areas. Stay safe and make sure you have all the essential items you need, and if you are sick then stay home and away from people. If you show signs of severe coughing and breathing problems, or vomiting (all in severe coronavirus cases) then contact 911 immediately and get yourself to the hospital as soon as possible. I will update you tomorrow, and if I do make a severe weather update book then don't be surprised if updates are a little later than anticipated, as if there is a warning there will be me not just on here, but also recording it. If there actually is a tornado then I will go on the porch, take a vid of it for a few minutes, then get the frikin heck into my basement quickly. Pray that the storms won't be too bad here and that the coronavirus is not too bad here. Stay tuned for the possible severe weather book and tomorrow's updates.
