    After four weeks of April …

    IMT _ 9.14 (+0.6) .. fourth week 8.0 (1.3 below normal). could be 9.2 as a final value.

    MAX _20.1, appears to be set

    MIN _ -2.2, appears to be set

    PRC _ 122% of normal, just 48% of normal for the fourth week … guaranteed about 117% (only Shannon was a little below average April total, and as of today is level … further rainfalls will therefore add to guaranteed value to reach final value current estimate being 135% based on observed and expected amounts today and 30th April).

    SUN _ 98% of normal, 115% for the fourth week. Will probably finish around 95%.

    bonus was scored above in an earlier post. (59.8 Valentia)

    Congrats to Kindred Spirit, Cornerstonelad, Rameire, Pauldry and DOCARCH for breaking 80 and to everyone for our impressive Con Sensus score of 90 (about second or third highest Con score ever, I believe).

    It could be a while until I can update annual scoring (on a road trip).
