April Forecaster of the Month

It’s not been common lately that I’ve been able to get the forecaster of the month post up early in the following month AND it is happening on a quiet weather day. Even more rare is that this month, every outlet had a share of at least one victory… except The Weather Channel. They remain in the lead for the year, but Clime had a very good finish to the month, and it brought them to victory.

Outlet Forecast Wins (year)
The Weather Channel 3
Clime 2.33
WeatherNation 2.16
National Weather Service 1.83
Accuweather 1.33
Victoria-Weather 1
Weatherbug 0.33

Welcome rain

I was more skeptical of the chances for rain in Logan earlier this week than most, because it looked like precipitation would be available for the higher terrain, and less so in the dry, urban locales of Utah. Not that I didn’t want it to rain, as this part of the world will take advantage of precipitation when they can. There was about a third of an inch on Monday, while Tuesday saw a few drips, but no actual reports of rain on Sunday. Clime had it’s second very good forecast verification in a row, earning the championship for the day.
Actuals: Monday – .32″ of rain, High 51, Low 32
Tuesday – .01″ of rain reported, not measured. High 54, low 30

Grade: B
