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

will add color codes later, will have to consider whether or not warmest should be dual-format depending on next month entries. 

(having a one and done as warmest should be along with warmest regular forecaster for extreme forecast designations but if the new entrant makes more forecasts then they would have exclusive access for designation)

(coldest forecasts are mostly among last two entries shown, except for western region where BKV or SL have them)

All of our western forecasts are above normal. All but a few eastern and ORD-ATL are below. IAH is more variable. 

<<< table will be adjusted if further entries are received >>>
