We're going to see 2014 (or worse) repeated at the presidential level as the people voting for Trump all think this is a hoax and will turn out in droves.

That didn't work out in Wisconsin.

I don't think it will be too bad. As long as there isn't a second surge by November we should be fine.
There likely will be.

I think it’s likely if not by November then December or January. Most definitely sometime in the winter.

But it happening in November is a major possibility and vote by mail should be allowed if not encouraged.

I'm not a meteorologist despite the fact that I got really into the weather when I was 7 after I missed Hurricane Andrew because a family trip didn't work out. Had we stayed, we would have been in the keys during the worst of it.

However, it is my understanding that a mild hurricane season (where hurricanes don't form in great numbers and if they do, they stay offshore or in the deep tropics with the remainder coming ashore the US as underdeveloped or remnant Tropical Storms) is usually proceeded by an early fall. If the corona is really that weather dependent and if my assumption about the climate is generally true, wouldn't that mean ironically that a severe hurricane season means that the next outbreak may happen only after the election?
