===========================

 

Extreme forecasts 

ORD (+4.2), ATL (+3.1) are both wins for Stormchaser Chuck with high forecasts (+4.0, +3.0); shared win for ATL with Roger S.

PHX (+1.8) is also a win for high forecast by Rhino16 (+1.2). 

DEN (-0.5) and SEA (-1.9) are wins for low forecasts, RodneyS (-0.1) DEN and wxallannj (-1.0) SEA. 

(Persistence would have a win for cold (-1.1) at SEA but we don't track persistence in this aspect). 

 

... ... annual update will follow later today or early Sunday (going slow today).
