Annual CET competition - December update
Here are the final tables for the 2015 competition.
Congratulations to lanky who is our winner this year . It is only fitting really as he has been at the top of the table for 5 months this year, more than anyone else.
It was very tight though in the end as sussex snow magnet finished just 0.04C behind and Taylor1740 just 0.24C behind.
Our leader last month John S2 dropped to 7th this month. He does have the distinction of being the only person to be in the top 10 in the table in every month during 2015.
A number of people in the top 10 finished at their highest position of the year including Darren S, nouska and redmoons.
Several large climbers throughout the table including Surrey John, moonmin75, cowman and Gavin P all going in the right direction. It is all relative of course as nobody made a close prediction this month but some were closer than others.
Worth noting that if you had predicted the 1981-2010 mean every month throughout the year your error would have been 12.89C. So that puts the final table into perspective.
Thank you to everyone for taking part in another hard fought competition this year. Lets see what 2016 brings. Happy New Year to everyone.
