I will add you in, would be ineligible for a contest win but will rank it anyway.

I will be getting a table of forecasts together at the deadline, no extensions are foreseen, but edit away if you wish, I won't be collecting any data until after the stated deadline a week from now. Luckily it's not 1925 or we would already know outcomes.

__ Table of forecasts __ 2024 N Atlantic tropical season contest __ Scoring rules at base of table, order of entry breaks any tied scoring ranks. NOAA, expert consensus, UK and contest consensus will be ranked independently (won't affect your contest ranks) ... a few entries were posted on Net-weather (UK) and boards.ie weather forum (Ireland). ... ranks will be (a) overall and also (b) for each forum. Order of entry is for American Wx Forum entries, separate coded order of entry is given for guests. (e.g. NW-1 indicates first of five Net-weather entries). In event of U.S. and guest forecasts being tied, I will determine from forum posted dates relative order of entry. Contest consensus is a median (not a mean) of (not-specific-expert-group) on time entries.

Scoring for contest will follow same rules as previous years. Errors for named storms (S) are applied at 50% compared to errors in H and M For H and M error deductions (from 100 points) are an average of error and error squared. For example, a forecast of 11 H and outcome of 13 takes a penalty of 3 (average of 2 and 4). An error of six takes a penalty of 21 (average of 6 and 36) ... etc. Errors for number of storms will be calculated in similar way but will be divided by 2, so if you predicted 30 storms and 24 occur, error deduction is half of 21, or 10.5. Scores around 95 usually win this contest. Note: If you discover your forecast is a duplicate of an earlier submitted forecast and you want to alter your forecast to nearest available different forecast, post by June 10.

Difficult to edit above post, basically, NOAA will go into contest at 21 10.5 5.5 and expert consensus will be 23 11 5. I will note UK 22 12 4 also. Working on table of forecasts, will be available on June 6. Contest is now closed to entries but I would accept any posted before table appears.

Based on runs of top one-third of all data (bold in table), closer to median Nov 2023 disqualified recent interval of Sep 2023 to present, and on basis of top third, longest runs showing the gradual increasing duration were: 3 (Dec 1889 to Feb 1890, Jan-Mar 1898) 4 (Aug-Nov 1900, May-Aug 1908, Oct 1912-Jan 1913) 6 (Sep 1931 - Feb 1932) 8 (May - Dec 1953, June 1973 - Jan 1974) 11 (Oct 1990 to Aug 1991) since then, longest run was seven months, on two occasions, Oct 2001- Apr 2002 and Mar-Sep 2010. The current interruption (or disqualification) by Nov 2023 is similar to 1949 losing a run of eight (Jan - Aug) to a near miss by May 1949, or ten if you also count Dec 1948. Also April 2015 to Nov 2016 was broken up by three relatively average months. Against some normal values it could be a 20-month period of warmth.

Any clearing in store for you later (after midnite possibly)? Western Europe seeing major (historic) display of aurora borealis (now). Clear out west, but six hours to dark skies.

Probably a final report but could be edited for DEN, cannot affect outcome as RodneyS has more to spare at DEN than anyone else. Congrats to RodneyS (subject to final verification).

As always, predict the highest temperatures to be expected this summer at the four airports: DCA IAD BWI RIC and I will start the ball rolling with 103, 105, 106 and 107. Contest deadline 06z June 15 2024 Tie-breaker details: lowest errors break ties, order of entry the last level separating ties For example, 0 1 1 1 beats 0 1 2 0. ... 2 1 1 1 beats 2 2 1 0. ... June 2nd beats June 4th. ___ DEFENDING 2023 WINNER: WEATHER53 ___

It's that time again ... enter your forecast for seasonal totals of storms, hurricanes, and major hurricanes (in the North Atlantic basin) ... using NOAA official counts as our contest guide. Include any named storms already in the books by 06z June 5th in your total (as of now, count is 0/0/0). 1991-2020 average values 14/7/3 ... 2024 seasonal forecasts from various experts average 22/11/5 (so far). I will include a few of these as of June 1st as non-entries for ranking against our forecasts (without changing our contest ranks). I extended the entry deadline based on the situation to 06z June 5th. You can edit or revise any entries up to final deadline, no need to bring attention to edits as I won't be trying to create a table of entries until deadline is passed. Boards.ie weather forum and Net-weather (UK) will be invited to participate. Ranks will be provided (a) over all entries and (b) within forums, or fora if anyone here is a Latin purist. Good luck !

In Las Vegas (waiting for flight), strong sun makes 90 feel like 125. Supposed to be strong winds by 6 or 7 p m, hoping to be airborne before they do a ground stop.

Quickly finished scoring updates, they will need quality control when I have a chance, scoring generally very high for April, several over 700 and two over 770. Enjoying trip to Utah and will be flying back to BC on 4th.

Jacob Lake AZ north of Grand Canyon at 8,000' elevation had about 2-3" new snow late Friday, we drove through that area Saturday and it was barely above freezing but at lower elevations it was 55-60 F with a few leftover rain showers and sunny breaks. It has cleared out totally now in Kanab UT and looking for 70-75 F highs on Sunday. Saw two rare condors near Lees Ferry AZ, nine foot wingspans, prehistoric looking.

On vacation in Las Vegas and s Utah since Tuesday, gradual cooling trend ended with rain and gusty winds today, hot to warm to very cool, now just 40F at Kanab, UT (was 90F on Tues in Vegas). Both LAS and SLC set daily rainfall records, at 0.23" Vegas to 0.82" SLC. I think gradient of rainfall in between was fairly linear so about 0.4" fell in parts of s Utah. It is the first significant rain in Vegas and s UT since winter ended but the wet winter resulted in very good desert blooming, saw lots of flowering cactus on display at Desert National Wildlife Refuge located about ten miles north of Vegas outer suburbs on US95, if you get a chance it's a very interesting area, as is nearby Red Rock Canyon and Fire Valley State Park. Going to various national parks in UT now but in most cases have visited before so we know what to expect (life elevated).
