COUNTIF without counting blank cells

Hi,

I am trying to build a model, but I have some problems.

Say I have a row with data, like:

Total:
12
10
8
5
12
5
ect....

I want to count how many of the numbers are > 9.5.

I used this formula: =COUNTIF(F4:F22;">=9,5") , and it works fine.

However, there is some missing data, that is gonna get added on the way. Like a bunch of blank/0 cells. Looks like this:

Total:
12
10
8
5
12
5
0
0
0
0
0
ect....

Is there any way to add something to the COUNTIF formula to exclude the blank cells from being counted?

Any help is appriciated.
