Here's a photo of the excel spreadsheet I made to give you an estimated weight of your pumpkin.
I got the inspiration from a post last year by Jay Yohe who did a similar thing.

You enter the values of your circumference, SS, and EE and it adds it up in the box next to OTT. From there, I use =(((14.2/(1+7.3*2^(-(OTT)/96)))^3+((OTT)/51)^2.91)-8)*0.993 to give me the weight in pounds, which I round to one decimal point. To convert it to kilograms, I multiply it by 0.45359237 and round it to one decimal point as well. Email me if you want a copy of this in excel spreadsheet.
