I had a hard drive failure so I didn't know we were going to be picking dates.
Can I get in for the 13th?

I don't think it would be fair to the other contestants. You still have a shot at runner-up if your number hits.

Bill, I assume that you are using the edit function to add the status to your original post at the top of this thread. That looks to be a good, efficient use of space. Everyone should just have to glance at the first post of this thread to see the results. The only problem that I see is that the status on the list of forums does not show that anything has been added.

I'll figure something, I realize editting a post doesn't generate a new post icon. Don't worry though Patrad, I think your smiley face is going to dissapear in the next few hours...sorry.

Bill,

Just to clarify, we are talking fahrenheight not celsius, right? Those scales get pretty similar at negative temps.

Yes, everything here is in Fahrenheit.

I have to say folks, I got a very pleasant surprise in the mail today. My wife explained that an envelope was waiting for me. I saw the name and address and knew right away it was - - - my prize! Being the 2nd place finisher in the January temperature contest I received a wonderful photo from Bill O!

Oh my, it is nice. Please understand that my wife can not figure out why I love Mt Washington so much - or why I like to hike back in Tuck's in the winter to take pictures - or that I spend so much time watching the Observatory's web cameras on any computer I can get my hands on. But, she saw the picture and she loved it. "We have to get it framed right away!" - was her words. Very nice. Thanks Bill. Thanks also to my guessing machine for picking a winning number. And most of all, thanks to Columbus for teaching me to type.

He showed us how to "Search for a key and land on it."

Thanks Brad, glad you like it.

Looks like we have a new leader for February as well.

The Morning Report says -26 degrees. I thought it was going to get colder than that last night. But the winds have held strong all night. The Report says the peak gust was 127 MPH!
