Is tonight considered for this bet, or just the day?

Re: Bet test
 

So how's the weather in Boston?

Will I be collecting a fortune tonight or losing everything I have?

Check out this page... http://www.weather.com/activities/ot...locid=USMA0046

It says it won't rain until 12 AM, which means that people who bet on "no rain" should win...I think.

Re: Bet test
 

Yay, I won.... I guess. I also bet all my money, so I just tripled it. :D

Re: Bet test
 

They are cutting it close. I mean if it rains 1 minute proir to 12am, the tables would turn. Things are getting intense!

Who knew the weather channel could be so intensely exciting! :eyes:

Re: Bet test
 

if the odds of rain are 30%, odds should be 10/3 (close to 3/1) (meaning if you make a bet of 3, and you win, you get 10 in return)
the odds of no rain would be 70%, making the odds for that 10/7 (you'd have to make a bet of 7 to get 10 in return)

So?

current conditions: light rain


I dunno when it started though.

Re: Bet test
 

What do we do now?

Re: Bet test
 

How do I receive my doubloons?

Re: Bet test
 

According to the weather.com Boston received .05 inches on Wednesday. Light rain started sometime before 11:54 pm local time. I'll settle the bets now.

Re: Bet test
 

i really must say, i found it suprising so many bet no rain. that 30% is decieving.

it almost always rains when theres a 30% chance

Re: Bet test
 

I figured SOME part of Boston would get SOME rain. And .05 inch is very small... but, I was correct on that thought. Big win.

Re: Bet test
 

Wow, I wish I had bet more money on this. Oh well, a win is a win!
