Extreme forecast update for October 2015

 

The table of extreme forecasts is getting quite long and so if you want to review the cases between January and August, then check the table near the end of the August thread (post 39).

 

Seven more cases in September and possibly as many as seven in October will bring the total for 2015 to 59 out of 90 so far.

 

 

 

Month _____ City ___________ Anom _________ Extreme __ 2nd ext ________ W-L decision

 

Sep 2015 __ DCA ____________ +3.9 _______ +4.1 (Damage) __ +3.8* _______ Win shared by 3

Sep 2015 __ NYC ____________ +6.4 _______ +4.2 RodneyS ___ +4.1 ________ Win RodneyS

Sep 2015 __ BOS ____________ +4.3 _______ +3.8 Roger _____ +3.8 (pen) ____Win Roger

Sep 2015 __ ORD ____________ +4.4 _______ +3.8 Maxim ____ +2.2 _________Win Maxim

Sep 2015 __ ATL _____________ 0.0 ________ 0.0 Normal ____ +1.0 (three) ___ Win see below

Sep 2015 __ DEN _____________+6.0 _______ +1.8 (Midlo) ____ +1.6 _________Win Midlo

Sep 2015 __ PHX _____________+1.5 _______ +1.7 Rjay _______+1.5 (two) ___ W for two; L Rjay

 

Oct 2015 __ DCA _____________--0.5 _______ --0.7 Tenman J __ --0.3 ksammut _ W shared TJ, ks

Oct 2015 __ BOS ______________ 0.0 _______ --0.3 Tom ______ --0.1 ksammut _ W ksammut**, L Tom

Oct 2015 __ ORD _____________ +2.2 ______ +3.0 Midlo ______ +2.2 Damage __ W Damage, L Midlo

Oct 2015 __ IAH ______________ +1.8 ______ +2.0 Damage ____+1.6 ksammut _ W shared Dam,ks

Oct 2015 __ DEN ______________ +5.6 ______ +3.3 Damage ___ +3.0 _________ W Damage

Oct 2015 __ PHX ______________ +2.7 ______ +3.0 Roger _____ +2.5 Damage___W Damage, L Roger

Oct 2015 __ SEA ______________ +4.4 ______ +5.5 Roger _____ +3.5 RodneyS __W RodS L Roger

 

** Normal also gets a win for BOS

 

*for DCA, two scores tied with the extreme (Damage in Tolland), one was +3.8 with a 2 point penalty (ksammut) and the other was +3.7 by RodneyS ... all three share the win.

for ATL, three tied for extreme as all forecasts were positive, actual was zero, so that Normal won but three forecasters with +1.0 (Mallow, SD, dmillz25) share the win.

for PHX, Midlo and Damage tied for best forecast which was the second most extreme, thus Rjay gets a loss in the table below ...

You have a screenshot of the table before final editing, so check back, there are one or two slight changes. I just finished the editing (3:45 p.m.). I have added in the best scores for October and some of the scores changed by 2 or 4 points so totals will all be just a tiny bit different. Taking a peek at the excel table, Isotherm 3884 and Damage 3825 are the final totals. The entire contest is fairly close, even the forecasters behind you two (and Consensus) still have a chance if they break away in November or December.
