FYI: I've started a project to verify LRC forecasts for the next year.

I'm verifying highs, lows, precip amount (and yes/no precip forecast) for the following:

ANC
MIA
PHX
ORD
SEA
DEN
MSY
HNL
MSP
BOS
SFO

I'll hope to present at NWAS25 and AMS2026. So far, the results are worse than climo.
Here's an analysis of the LRC's ability to predict long-term temperatures...

Halfway into December, and it's not looking good... So far, you'd be better off just calling every day "normal" and take your hits that way. Using LRC was worse than NOT MAKING A FORECAST.

Which, if it continues, is reminiscent of the 2022 run, when the Warriors faced DEN, MEM, DAL and BOS...

When I thought they'd definitely lose if they faced No. 1 overall seed PHX, who lost West semis in 7 games to DAL.
Going into the postseason, I thought there were 4 teams that the Warriors probably wouldn't beat in a series. 1+ rounds into it and:

-One of them is eliminated (LAC)
-Other 3 are down 0-1 (BOS, CLE, OKC)

Had GSWs as a tossup vs. MIN and DEN. And would be favored to beat the rest.

Maps of the Delta and United cuts loaded so far, as interpreted from the FlightAware cancels reports.

Not all frequencies on these routes, and decent chance things continue to shift. But this is what I'm seeing right now.
