WxUSAF Posted September 23, 2013 Share Posted September 23, 2013 That time of the year again. Long-range progs are advertising a potentially chilly start to October. Rules are the same as before...minimum cumulative departure wins. So, a forecast of November 5th for DCA's first freeze would have a departure of 5 if the first freeze is actually on November 10th. This departure is added to that for RIC, IAD and BWI for a contestant's total departure. You are forecasting the first day the temperature reaches 32F or lower at the following 4 stations: RIC: DCA: IAD: BWI: Tiebreaker: Cumulative rainfall for November 1-14 at BWI Contest closes at the end of the month (11:59pm September 30th).
