Maybe it’s because we have spent so much time at home, but we got through a lot of forecasts in April. I prefer reviewing those months, because we really get a taste for how successful everyone was. This month, it was even a fairly close race, letting us know there were some good forecasters last month. In the end it was Accuweather who grabbed the top prize for the month. Let’s look at the individual wins, though.
Outlet | Month wins |
Accuweather | 2 |
National Weather Service | 1.83 |
The Weather Channel | 1.5 |
Weatherbug | 1.33 |
Forecast.io | 1 |
WeatherNation | 0.33 |
Victoria-Weather |
That brings us to the totals for the year.
Outlet | Month wins | year wins |
The Weather Channel | 1.5 | 6 |
Weatherbug | 1.33 | 5.16 |
Victoria-Weather | 4.75 | |
WeatherNation | 0.33 | 3.41 |
National Weather Service | 1.83 | 3.08 |
Accuweather | 2 | 2.25 |
Forecast.io | 1 | 1.33 |
With a commanding lead that, it should be no surprise that The Weather Channel is indeed in the lead for forecaster of the year. This month, though, kudos belong to Accuweather. Way to go!
