How this week got its score

  • 6 forecast days: 0 clear/mainly clear, 0 partly cloudy, 6 overcast, 0 wet (fog/drizzle/rain/showers), 0 stormy.
  • Trimmed mean of day scores 6.9 × 0.55 = 3.80
  • Worst day drag: worst day is 6.7 × 0.25 = 1.68 - one bad day cannot be averaged away.
  • Longest consecutive run of good days (≥7.0) is 1/6 = 17% coverage × 0.20 = 0.33
  • Best single day is 7.2 but it only counts through the trimmed mean - a lone great day cannot carry the window.

The full model, including why a single great day cannot rescue a bad week, is on the methodology page.
