Roger Smith Posted March 28, 2019 Share Posted March 28, 2019 I wonder if anyone actually reads this post, I could really do well in the contest if I changed the format to actual instead of anomaly-based ... just kidding ... So it's as always the nine locations and a forecast of departures from 1981-2010 normal values for DCA _ NYC _ BOS ___ ORD _ ATL _ IAH ____ DEN _ PHX _ SEA (forecasts in F deg relative to normals). The usual deadline and late penalties apply. Good luck !! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Projections to 21st mostly based on a subdued warmish regime although quite warm for both PHX and DEN at times. The extension to end of month based on GFS trends which look mainly like continuations of next week, although SEA shows a downward trend in general as west coast ridge shifts further inland. Too early for reliable provisional scoring, consensus score at present is 652/900, but changes likely in the snowfall contest which continues to be adjusted over in the March thread, will bring it here in a few days time when the current event in the Midwest is completed. 22nd _ Posting some provisionals on the old projections as they seem fairly good approximations, after revising the central three -- will be away for a week to the 29th or even 30th now, so would not look for any further updates. Have posted some updates for 21 days and p28, leaving the p30 data as shown yesterday so the provisional scoring holds until I get back on the 30th from a planned week away. May thread is open. 29th _ Late 29th on returning from holiday, I updated the anomalies and provisionals. Scoring is updated and will be finalized after 30th. May 1 _ Final anomalies posted above, scoring will be adjusted by noon EDT. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Roger Smith Posted April 22, 2019 Author Share Posted April 22, 2019 Final scoring for April 2019 DCA scoring -- highest raw score is only 44, so scoring goes to max of 60 rule, then down in increments of 6 pts. Below 42 points, raw scores are higher than the progression, so those scores revert to normal scoring. Late penalties for 1 or 2 per cent are shown in one line, * for one point deducted and ** for two.
