You pick a city for each day (12z - 12z), in which you will have a 25 mile radius around that city to gain reports. Picks need to be submitted by 11:00 a.m. Eastern Time, regardless of whether or not Daylight Savings Time is in effect. If severe weather is occuring between the time when SPC Day One Reports start (12z) and 11:00 a.m., you can NOT pick a city within a few miles of those severe storms.
You are not required to submit a guess for every day, although obviously your chances of winning will increase with each day you submit a guess for. To that end, if you are going to be away from the forum for an extended period of time (vacation, etc.), you may submit guesses in advance for all of the days you will be away from the forum for. Scoring is as follows: 1 point for every normal hail/wind report within 25 miles of your city. 2 points for every significant hail/wind report (2"+ hail & 75+ mph wind) within 25 miles of your city. 5 points for every tornado report within 25 miles of your city. Tornado - 5 Significant Hail/Wind - 2 Normal Hail/Wind - 1 The plan is for there to once again be two rounds, with the first lasting from January 1 - June 30, and the second lasting from July 1 - December 31. Good Luck to everyone! This post has been edited by snowlover2: Dec 29 2012, 03:10 PM -------------------- # of T-Storm Watches:2
