___________________________________

In category scoring (Jan to July totals), high score is bold, 2nd is bold italic and 3rd plain italic.

(ranks are given to top three forecasters, regardless of position of NormaL or Con Sensus as noted below)

IMT _ three tied for second place, no third place awarded.

MAX _ Con Sensus would be first alone. NormaL would be second alone. Two forecasters tied for second, no third place awarded.

MIN _ Two forecasters tied for second, no third place awarded.

PRC _ Two forecasters tied for third.

SUN _ Three ranks without ties.

BONUS _ Two forecasters tied for first, one third place awarded. Normal and Con Sensus would be tied with that third place score.

Order in category scoring is same as determined by total scores in annual scoring summary above this table.

Not all have any late penalties, but those who do will have their contest score (after penalties) in the TOTAL column and the total before penalties (the sum of the category scores) in brackets and italic font, after their contest score.

============

(I have adjusted the following as well, although differences are insignificant)

Four seasons contest -- Summer update

The contest awards ten points for top total score in each season, and seven points for second, six for third, etc, down to one point for 8th to 12th places, and anyone else who gets at least 170 points (if applicable, was not in winter as 170 was 12th and in spring 12th was 166). The following table of scoring shows the winter segment results, and adds the spring (March-April-May) points, for total points in the final column.
