Well the world is certainly a different place

then when we started the contest.

Hopefully everyone is staying healthy and safe.



As if this year wasn't crazy enough already,

the winning date for the UW Weather Station Contest

was not only the latest date we have seen in

the history of the contest, but also the latest first

20°C day in the over 100 years of weather records

in the region (the previous record was

May 13th, 1919) .

The temperature first went above 20°C at

3:15 pm on May 16th.



Out of the 1191 entries, it was Valerie Christie whose guess

of 2:15 pm was the closest to the correct time.



In second place was Mary Grummett.



Congratulations to all the winners and thanks to everyone who entered.



And a question, should we allow people to choose dates in June next year?
