===<<< __________ Annual Scoring Report (Jan - Sep 2022) _____________>>>===

Total scores for each location, region ... best scores for locations in red, for regions in bold type.

Despite fairly close scoring in September, RodneyS managed to move into third place ahead of so_whats_happening who is now fourth, and RodneyS also passed Consensus which is now a rank lower (between third and fourth).  Tom is fifth and Hudsonvalley21 moves into sixth ahead of wxallannj who is now seventh; BKViking moved closer to the seventh position but remains 8th. Normal remains between 10th and 11th and Stormchaser Chuck's prorated score has dropped from equivalent to 8th to 10th (still ahead of me but now also behind Normal).

EXTREME FORECAST SCORING 

(second total in brackets adjusts for tied wins which are indicated by * in monthly logs only -- so far this has occurred twelve times, once for SEA in Feb, once for IAH in Apr, once for DEN in May and again Aug, once for BOS in June, once for SEA in June, once for DCA in July and also Aug and Sep, once for BOS in July and once for ORD in July and again Aug.) Normal could also be tied for extreme forecast wins but this is not tracked.

(in March, four shared a win for DCA shown by ^ -- this counts as 0.25 in the second bracketed total).

(wins for Normal are in addition to forecaster wins and do not replace them _ Normal is not charged with a loss _ would have done so in April for DEN)

So far, 59 of 81 forecasts qualify, 25 warmest and 34 coldest; Jan 0-5, Feb 4-4, Mar 2-2, Apr 3-6, May 4-2, June 3-4, July 4-3, Aug 4-5, Sep 1-3.

(Normal is not considered for ties and can score a loss when 0.0 is between a win and a loss, but not when 0.0 is lower than a winning low forecast)
