Very tardy announcement! Roy did announce the April UAH temperature anomaly some time ago: 0.190C. The winners for April’s UAH bet are MpG, Ben and Anteros who took win, place and show. Remember: ties go to whoever entered their bet first. Other entries are shown below. I assume Lisa Turner ‘committed typo’ when entering 18 and intended to enter 0.18. As it makes no difference to the outcome, I’ve let that stand.

The net winnings for each member of the ensemble will be added to their accounts.
For those wonder the main reason for slow blogging…. uhmm… pattern drafting and sewing.
oops. I needed to move my decimal point back one. My prediction was really .199 for april!
Will do better for May
Curses! Out of the quatloos by one place.
RickA–
Tough break for people this time around.
Well, that’s interesting. 🙂
Congrats to the winners, don’t spend all the quatloos in one place 🙂
It’s weird though, I was sure I placed bets in the last two UAH pools, and neither have shown up. Last time I thought maybe I’d misremembered. This time I believe I placed a 0.201 (not that it would change the wins/losses).
My streak continues unabated! 😉
Interestingly the final figure was very close the overall mean which was 0.192c.
Probably because the temp. has been very stable of late.
When will betting on May temp. be open?
Is there going to be any betting on the May UAH temp?
Thanks for the reminder. This is one of the latest posting of the betting form evah!
