Round 2: Hartford, CT
« on: June 09, 2013, 01:24:26 PM »
Welcome to Round 2 of the TWCT/TWCC Forecasting Contest!  Craig, the winner of Round 1, has chosen Hartford, CT as the next city.  The NWS climate summary for that city covers an ASOS located at a distant suburb to the north called Windsor Locks, so you will be forecasting for the Bradley International Airport (KBDL).  Here is a link to the NWS forecast for this airport to help you:

http://forecast.weather.gov/MapClick.php?lat=41.934801973449126&lon=-72.6895809173584

The two-week forecast period will begin on Monday, June 10.  You will submit your first forecast tonight to beat the midnight EDT deadline.  See the rules here if you need any help before beginning this round:

I will not be around to help during the second week of this period as I will be away with family, but Andy will take care of everything during that time.  Good luck, everyone! B)

All three forecasts have been entered, and you all are correct that rain has fallen here today.  It will just be a matter of how much falls before midnight.  Day 2 forecasts may be entered now.

All Day 2 forecasts have been entered.  The results from Day 1 are rather interesting.  First, I'm sure you're all happy to finally nail the POP for saying it would rain.  Craig was closest for the precipitation amount, Metarvo was closest for the high, and Tavores was closest for the low.  So, who will win this round?

Matthew, since you missed the first forecast day, you'll have to take the penalty.  Everyone can enter their Day 3 forecasts now, and I have posted the results from Day 1 here:
