    Had mine water proofed after the great flood. Best investment ever. Of course, Berkley has shit sewer systems, so a backup is still possible.

    Friday is showing upwards of six inches of snow during the afternoon commute with possibly another foot Saturday if the temps stay cold.

    I assume it won’t be anything like that but fuck.

    life hack: marry a teacher and you'll never need to look at a weather forecast in the winter. If there's a 1% chance of a snow day in two weeks, you'll know about it.

    Never saw this thread before.

    My mom is from Farmington Hills and I grew up coming up there every year visiting family and as we got older, we spent a lot of time in Detroit. I have always loved Michigan. It's full of great people.

    So it only impacts bars and restaurants. How about putting in an order gyms, where it’s fsr more likely to spread.

    FROM THE FREEP, a guide on what to do if you think you have COVID-19:

    With more and more cases of coronavirus being confirmed around the state, it's important to monitor your health, for your sake and for those around you.

    Here's a guide on what to do if you suspect you've caught COVID-19:

    What if I think I'm sick?
    Don't run off to the doctor or emergency room. The symptoms of COVID-19 may show up anywhere from 2-14 days after exposure, according to the Michigan Department of Health and Human Services. Those symptoms are:

    • fever (generally 100.4 or above)
    • dry cough
    • fatigue
    • shortness of breath
    Other flu-like symptoms of COVID-19 include chills, body aches, sore throat, headache, diarrhea, nausea, vomiting and runny nose.

    Wet, productive coughs, low-grade fever or a runny nose generally are not associated with COVID-19.
    Unsure? Start by immediately isolating yourself from others, then call your doctor, who will help figure out if you need to be tested. Many appointments are best handled by telemedicine or web visits. You can also call your local health department:

    Wayne: 734-727-7100

    Macomb: 586-469-5235

    Oakland: 248-858-1280

    The state of Michigan also has set up a COVID-19 hotline to field questions. It is open seven days a week from 8 a.m. to 5 p.m. at 1-888-535-6136.

    Get tested – if and when one is available. There still are too few test kits to do the blanket coverage of the population that would allow researchers to track how the novel coronavirus is spreading.

    Many hospital systems are beginning to offer curbside testing. For example, Beaumont hospitals in Royal Oak, Dearborn, Farmington Hills and Troy are offering limited screening for patients who have symptoms consistent with COVID-19 (fever, cough, shortness of breath). Note: If medical staff determine a patient needs to be tested, a specimen will be collected and sent to a lab for testing. Call ahead to Beaumont’s COVID-19 hotline at (248) 551-7000 or your physician’s office before attempting to get screened.

    Tell your doctor everything. Report any travel or an area with widespread or community contagion on COVID-19. Report any contacts with anyone who later tested positive for the novel coronavirus. The doctor most likely will test you for other viruses like the flu before testing you for COVID-19.

    Take part in public health. The local health department will follow up with people who are tested for the novel coronavirus or develop COVID-19. Health workers will ask about everyone you’ve come in contact with so they can follow up.

    Keep your pets safe. The CDC recommends limiting contact with pets and other animals while you are sick with COVID-19. While no one has reported passing COVID-19 to a pet, “It is still recommended that people sick with COVID-19 limit contact with animals until more information is known about the virus.”

    Private country clubs staying open against public officials’ advice, followed by the virus ripping its way through salmon shorts wearing motherfuckers will be a sight to behold.
