_____________________________________________________

as of 0600h 3rd, 22 forecasts, sdanseo and Lumi were yet to post, for now Con sensus (median) is mean of 11th and 12th ranked in each category.

Locations chosen for maximum 24h rainfall:

Valentia 5 (Con scores three if correct for max location)
Oak Park 3, Ballyhaise 3, Belmullet 2, Cork 2, Mountdillon 2, JC 2 (Con scores two if any of them is max)
1 for Newport, Finner, Belmullet, Claremorris
(Con scores one point if correct)

any other location, Con scores zero, your score is based on rank of your choice, three if you chose max location, two if you chose 2-3 ranked, and one if you choose 4-6 ranked.

As I will now be off-line for most of August, it would be helpful if forecasters posted some data based on monthly data or ag report or for 24h max rain, yesterday's weather sections of the met.ie website. Thanks and good luck.

Just had a bit of internet time, IMT to 9th is 16.1, PRC appears to be fairly low (55% a rough estimate) and SUN about 85% (has been near normal 3rd to 9th per Ag Report, but quite low on first two days, so blend is 85%). Hoping you will post any apparent MAX or MIN candidates and heavy rainfalls if any occur.
