    Malin 77KT The Mullet 77KT Can't decide which so I hereby predict a dead heat between them for my max points and do note a small revision downward after the 12z GFS run. :D

    It's pretty much a guessing contest so I guessed a wee bit on the high side. :D

    Wow, you guys aren't buying into this downgrade at all.

    I really expect something like 70 kts at Belmullet from the guidance at present, but I am going to throw in a wild card prediction based on something that could happen and probably won't, a gusty thunderstorm cell happening to catch a weather station full blast.

    So my entry will be Casement 72 knots

    (more likely we'll hear about such a wind gust inland either anecdotally from a weather report or news item)

    Grand but you're only getting 2.5 points for location if it's one of those on a different figure!!!

    Competition Entries Closed

    * = Sponge Bob only gets points for location if they are both the same, as he couldn't make his mind up.

    ** = People who gave more than one entry, or entry in mph. If more than one, I picked the one furthest north (cos I felt like it :cool: and it's fair enough, given that the storm is passing to the north of us), unless they change it overnight. If given in mph, i've converted to knots.

    # = 20% points reduction due to late entry.

    Right then, just cos' no one else has gone for it, and because you just never know and because anyone who's seen my pitiful guesses in the monthly competition knows I know nothing about weather, i'm going for...
