My laptop never crashed to the point where I lost everything, but it came close several times. I hope you're able to get everything back to normal.

Important!  Please read!

For those of you participating in the contest, week 2 of forecasting for Tampa, FL will be delayed by one week until Monday, August 12.  Patrick is unable to be on the forums because his computer is under repairs, and I am on vacation this week and do not have access to the spreadsheet as I only brought my phone.

Forecasting will resume for Monday, August 12.  I apologize for inconveniencing everyone participating in the contest.  Thank you for your understanding.

Andy, please take over the forecasting contest for the rest of this round as I won't be available to do it due to more computer problems.  I have given you the spreadsheet for this round and entered the numbers through the first week.  I can briefly reveal the standings through Day 5 now even though it will be a crude listing here since all my settings have been wiped out from the hard drive replacement:

1.  Matthew - 28.0
2.  Metarvo - 29.0
3.  Zach - 34.5

Metarvo and Matthew:

This is a reminder that the contest has resumed, and your forecasts for Tampa, FL for Monday, August 12 are due by midnight EDT tonight.  I hope both of you are still able to participate in this round.
