| New user 24 | Subject: RE: Winter Crummy Weather Challenge Nov 18 -24 WEEK 3 Hey! Look what I found. I don't know how y'all record weather, but I usually don't think about it until I have to record my suckocity score. This web site has records for local weather stations. http://www.wunderground.com/weatherstation/index.asp Type in your zip code at the top. It shows a map with current conditions and forcasts. Below the map, click on "personal weather stations" (or just scroll down the page). Then it brings up a list of local weather stations. (I suspect there may be a lot or a few depending on where you live. If you click on one of these, you can select a day, and it brings up weather history for that station. It's really cool if you're like me and you just step outside in the morning in your underwear and say, "Yep! Snow mixed with hail with icicles off the house... guess I'll wear a sweatshirt on my run..." and want an accurate record later on. I don't know much about personal weather stations, but I suspect some may be more accurate than others, though I suspect airports are fairly accurate. |

Expert 1135 Delano, MN | Subject: RE: Winter Crummy Weather Challenge Nov 18 -24 WEEK 3 I use the history on the NOAA website of the city I finish in (most of my rides are commutes). Are we going to have an over all total going some where? |

Master 2139 piece o heaven | Subject: RE: Winter Crummy Weather Challenge Nov 18 -24 WEEK 3 I would suggest we all try to tally a bit in the beginning from week to week Then we will get organized more after the holidays and have a spread sheet |

Expert 1135 Delano, MN | Subject: RE: Winter Crummy Weather Challenge Nov 18 -24 WEEK 3 Well I just had my first snow ride on the bike! 273 points worth. Kind of awesome riding into the wind having the snow blow in my face and seeing it in my headlamp and headlight! |

Pro 4292 Evanston, | Subject: RE: Winter Crummy Weather Challenge Nov 18 -24 WEEK 3 My first humble entry: During my ride today, it was 38 degrees outside: 53 minutes X (bike multiplier +1) = 53 points Since I just moved from the Gulf Coast to the East Coast, I'm happy to get any "credit" at all for being outside in cold weather. Peace! |

Expert 1148 NW Suburbs, Illinois | Subject: RE: Winter Crummy Weather Challenge Nov 18 -24 WEEK 3 So, here is the sheet after the 1st two weeks. Check your score to make sure its accurate. The top 3 are Hikergerb, Pseudoyams, TriDDS and then comes me closely behind and should move up a spot after this week's 619.5. If your score is accurate, do nothing. If it isn't update this post or next weeks post!

Expert 657 Portland | Subject: RE: Winter Crummy Weather Challenge Nov 18 -24 WEEK 3 Training took a bit of a hit last week due to the holiday and the only run I did was a 5K on Thanksgiving day while I was visiting my bro in NC. The weather was less-than-crummy, so nothing to add to my total. Back home now and got a good run in this am, so I should be back on track this week.
