Thanks, I lucked out a bit there, but to give credit where due, some copy has gone missing and it was "wxfrisch" who had the best forecasts at those four stations.
I was impressed by the verifying 30-inch plus forecasts made by several people for IAD.
This was definitely a Nick Faldo eighteen-par sort of win, but save my seat at the back of the bus. -- Roger Smith
Nicely done...Roger.
