Banter - The ACT Summer & Tropical Outlook - Banter

On a windy day with rough in places as tall as Bethpage Black, Al, Charlie & Tony will try to improve upon their Summer 2018 outlook (which wasn't all that bad) today.   The crux of the outlook (# of 90 degree days for PHL) was made on the 18th hole, a 363 yard par 4 that played straight into the 10-20 mph wind.  The tropical outlook was based on the tricky 130 yard par 3 that played to a cross wind or no wind.

Anyway without further ado, the ACT model is outlooking 28 days of 90 degrees or higher at PHL and (this is banter) no tropical (or hurricane) force winds (this is banter) in the region this season (banter, banter, banter). 

We already have a solid built in excuse when this outlook goes wrong, we were suppose to upgrade to the A2CT model for this summer outlook, but Chris couldn't make it today.  So any errors on the outlook will be blamed ;) on Chris and we will be able to accurately say what his scores on the 13th & 18th holes would have been if he was here.

BTW, we didn't think it was wise for Tom to be part of the summer outlook.  He would have deliberately 7 or 8 putted to increase the number of 90 degree days.  ;)   We save Tom for the all important winter season, he nailed December's temperatures last season.:clap:
