I haven't been able to "stomach" scoring this yet. I will get to it though.

Re: June 2021 Heatwave Contest!
Okay! So, I did a preliminary scoring of the heatwave contest. So far, I only did those posters who got their picks in on Friday night for all 4 locations. Those users were Bonovox, VanCitySouth, Typeing3, AbbyJr, Roberts Creeker and Leighbugs.
I used this Environment Canada's historical weather site to score: https://climate.weather.gc.ca/historica ... ata_e.html
Using that site, these were the highs and lows:
YVR
32/18
31/19
32/20
YXX
40/18
42/21
43/22
YYJ
36/17
38/21
39/21
YKA
41/18
44/19
46/21
Finally, I marked the deviations from those temperatures for each user for each day:
VanCitySouth: 47
4,2,0
5,3,2
4,5,10
3,4,5
Typeing3: 54
5,2,2
5,5,6

AbbyJr: 98

Re: June 2021 Heatwave Contest!
With that said, Bonovox was the closest with the lowest deviation from the actual temps. Yay me!
I probably screwed this up in some way, so feel free to look into the data and rescore, but I tried to be as diligent as possible while fending off a 4 and 3 year old.

Re: June 2021 Heatwave Contest!
Thanks Bono. I'll happily take second. That 10 on Victoria's Monday really screwed me over eh? I thought the marine push would get to them a whole day before us.
