WEATHER53 Posted June 1, 2019 Share Posted June 1, 2019 On 5/7/2019 at 9:19 AM, PrinceFrederickWx said: Forecast the hottest temperature that will be recorded at the four airports (BWI, DCA, IAD, RIC) at any time between the start of met summer (June 1) and the end of astronomical summer (September 23). For the tiebreaker, choose only one of the following three locations: Charlottesville (CHO), Salisbury (SBY), or Hagerstown (HGR). As of right now, this will be a one-time contest, but if it goes over well I may make this an annual summer event. Thanks to @Roger Smith for the idea! Winner will be the person with the lowest absolute value departure and will be announced on September 24 (or sometime around then). Good luck! I'll start this off with mine: BWI: 102 DCA: 100 IAD: 99 RIC: 101 Tiebreaker HGR: 98 DCA:97 BWI:98 IAD:98 RIC:100 tiebreak SBY:98 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Roger Smith Posted June 1, 2019 Share Posted June 1, 2019 Reasonably good turnout for a first time contest, I for one would not mind seeing an extension through the weekend with a final push for more entries. There's no real "tells" on tonight's GFS that's for sure. But then again, June 1936 was not a very hot month. Little known fact, there were actually some record lows a few days before the big east coast July 1936 heat wave. I think you'll find some for BWI daily max earlier in the month. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MN Transplant Posted June 1, 2019 Share Posted June 1, 2019 I based my “lower” guess on the extreme wetness across the country and how that would keep a lid on the super hot temps. However, I have no idea whether there is actually a correlation there with 100 degree days in our area. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We have 23 people playing which is about the best I'd hoped for given it's summer and many aren't around. Since there's no real game-changing temps on the horizon at the moment, I'm ok keeping it open this weekend if any stragglers show up ( @WxWatcher007 perhaps?) It reminds me of 2012- blowtorch spring, early June cooled down, then all hell broke lose later in the month (BWI was 103 and DCA was 104 on the day of the derecho).

That would come in handy for my winter snowfall predictions. Of course knowing my luck I would pick up a Ryan Leaf type pick. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
