Ellinwood Posted March 27, 2012 Share Posted March 27, 2012 Got DC, but the winds didn't calm down as fast as I was expecting for the other stations so they kept their numbers up. Managed to get to 26-27 here in Gaithersburg where the winds DID go calm for an extended period. Some single digit dewpoints out there last night. Good job Rodney!

mattie g Posted March 27, 2012 Share Posted March 27, 2012 DCA killed me. I thought a slight NE breeze off the water would keep the temps up more than it did. Still...probably the best I've ever done in one of these contests. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
yoda Posted March 27, 2012 Share Posted March 27, 2012 I got hurt at BWI... figured the water would help keep BWI a few degrees warmer and that the wind hadn't died down yet... oh well... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mattie g Posted March 27, 2012 Share Posted March 27, 2012 overshooting MOS and point/click at DCA by 100 degrees works more often than not....not this time...I'm proud of DCA...way to go That, too. It was too easy a call (for me, at least) to go that high - I was even debating going a couple degrees warmer. I'm really surprised how it turned out.

WinterWxLuvr Posted March 27, 2012 Share Posted March 27, 2012 What did the tiebreaker end up being. I know we don't have a tie at the top, but we have some other ties. BTW, thanks for the contest MN. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Riptide Posted March 27, 2012 Share Posted March 27, 2012 It was interesting to note that there was no statistical difference between mets and non-mets, not to hit on the mets here... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

From what I've seen it's basically ALWAYS like that on a case-by-case basis. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

WEATHER53 Posted March 27, 2012 Share Posted March 27, 2012 It was very good for the Washington stations but the off by 6 at Richmond messed me up. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
