Ian Posted December 22, 2012 Share Posted December 22, 2012 Predict the peak gusts at the following: DCA IAD BWI RIC Tiebreaker (if you wish).. High at DCA Closest overall departure (added departures from each) wins. You can edit thru close. Example: DCA - 29mph IAD - 74mph BWI - 2mph RIC - 10mph DCA high: 25 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ian Posted December 22, 2012 Author Share Posted December 22, 2012 here are the numbers. assuming rodney's 32 for the hi was an error. if you see before like 9 am and want to change go for it if others dont care. i doubt it will come to the tiebreaker anyway. hopefully everyone put their numbers in using original order as i didn't look that close.. lemme know if i messed up your entry.

Ian Posted December 22, 2012 Author Share Posted December 22, 2012 might be an overperformer with HWW hoisted.. Gusts so far: DCA 35 IAD 44 BWI 44 RIC 32 DCA is weakish so far.. Dulles has sustained at 32! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not that it much matters, as I went too conservative, but in hastily submitting my entry I thought the tie-breaker was the high sustained wind at DCA, rather than the high temperature.

Ian Posted December 22, 2012 Author Share Posted December 22, 2012 All the numbers from MN were right except RIC which reported 38 in climo. I must have set up the table weird when I try to sort by rank it breaks the equations that get the numbers. So, I added numbers for ranks. Top 3: Bob Chill (5) -- even if your storm sucks at least your forecast here didnt WxUSAF (7) Aviationdave (8) Hopefully I didn't screw up, feel free to check.

I thought that my one consolation of using the ill-conceived 40-40-40 metro area strategy was that I had nailed Richmond -- instead I find that a rogue gust measured 5 mph higher than the highest hourly reading.

Bob Chill Posted December 23, 2012 Share Posted December 23, 2012 Ian, that is some funny sh!t. I'm laughing. And yes, my storm sucks and exactly why I never wanted it named in the first place. Now I gotta figure out a new screen name and start with post #1 tomorrow. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
