Forecast report card
We tested past July forecasts to see how often they were actually useful. These grades rate the overall month, not the weather on July 17.
| Lead time | Temperature | Rain |
|---|---|---|
| 11 months | C · overall July | D · overall July |
| 6 months | D · overall July | F · overall July |
| 3 months | D · overall July | F · overall July |
| 2 months | C · overall July | C · overall July |
| 1 month | D · overall July | D · overall July |
The scores are based on only 30 historical Julys, so don’t overread the difference between a C and a D. These are seasonal forecasts; forecasts for the actual wedding week and day will be graded separately once they exist.

WERE WE RIGHT?
We keep the receipts.
We keep every forecast we publish. After the event, we will compare it with what happened at the weather station on the property and with Piedmont records where useful.
How we know this
Public methodology, model scores and source status remain available here. Exact station coordinates, extraction checksums and raw provider payloads stay in the private audit record. Historical daily weather comes from ARPA Piemonte; hourly evening structure comes from Copernicus/ECMWF ERA5-Land; the seasonal outlook is CanSIPS.
Grades compare forecasts for the overall July pattern with a no-information climate reference, using probability skill, category accuracy, bootstrap uncertainty and sample size. They do not predict 8 p.m. on July 17. At 11 months, Canada’s model picked the right broad July temperature category 17 times out of 30 (57%). Rain: 12 of 30 (40%).
Piedmont weather historyCopernicus / ECMWFCanada’s long-range seasonal model
ERA5-Land uses a regional hill-grid point in southwestern Piedmont. ERA5 currently records too many wet days relative to ARPA, so guest-facing rain frequency and heavier-rain risk use ARPA alone. ERA5 remains useful for evening temperatures and cooling; its rain timing and dinner-rain figures stay out of the guest view until that discrepancy is resolved. The local station has a short record and is used as a check, not to rewrite the long record.
