It’s a beautiful spring day here in central Pennsylvania.

But wait, today is January 8.

The average high temperature on January 7 is 33F/0C, and the record high is 62F/16C, set in 1930. Yesterday was 66F/19C.

Today’s average high is the same, and the record is 64F/17C, set in 1937. It’s already 61F/16C out, and predicted to again be 66F/19C. [Update: final high for Jan. 8: 68F/20C. New record.]

What does this have to do with knitting? If January is balmy, when do I wear wool???

    On the plus side, the warm weather allowed me to get the greenhouse done that I had started over Thanksgiving. Said greenhouse is now giving the little seedlings a headstart on the Michigan growing season.
    Greenhouse begats greenhouse.

Welcome!

I’ve been doing stuff with string for quite some time, and describing it to others online since 1996 or so at Phiala’s String Page.

I also do some science and write some fiction.

I’m Phiala most places on the internet.
