Late Date for Betting!

Most of September is past. We had a bit of warm weather earlier on but temperatures have turned cool which is nice for jogging outdoors! Those who would like to bet on UAH lower tropospheric temperatures, you know the drill! Obviously, you should have access to lots of hints about Septembers temperature– not that that necessarily helps a lot!

  1. Here is my analysis of this month’s betting.
    I have excluded the bet figure of 0.8c by simon as it appears to be an error and would skew the figures.
    I have added two more figures, the numbers above and below last month’s anomaly:

    NO. OF BETS 29
    MAX 0.364
    MIN 0.078
    MEAN 0.169
    MEDIAN 0.150
    STD DEV 0.079
    MEAN 1-15 0.175
    MEAN 15-29 0.162
    MEAN PLUS 1 SD 0.248
    MEAN MINUS 1 SD 0.090
    WITHIN +/- 1 SD (%) 72.41
    ABOVE MEAN (%) 37.93
    BELOW MEAN (%) 62.07
    ABOVE AUG (%) 41.38
    BELOW AUG (%) 58.62

    It appears that the majority of bets predict a fall compared with August, although the actual mean is higher than last month, while the median is lower.

  2. Roy has posted for September…. a toasty +0.37C, so it looks like John Norris winds the quats.

  3. Way above the betting mean or median and even outside the mean + 2 standard deviations.
    On the other hand, almost identical to Sept. 2012!

  4. saw this coming with August’s SSTs and the Aqua Ch6 data. just didn’t go high enough (damn hope springs eternal).
