Temperature Blanket - Week 9

It is hard to believe that I've been doing my temperature blanket for more than 2 months! Since this week saw the end of February, I thought I'd update my comparison count for how many colors my blanket has compared to the 'standard' chart. Also, I had several people ask how to know when one month started and another ended, so I decided to do the first day of the month using half double crochet instead of single crochet, but then I forgot to do it! I remembered about it the day before, but didn't remember again until 3 days late! Maybe I'll remember for April.

Feb 26: 41
Feb 27: 49
Feb 28: 53 Rain from 7:00 am - 9:00 am and from 6:30 pm - midnight
Mar 1: 53 Rain from midnight to 2:00 am. Snow from 4:00 pm - 10:30 pm
Mar 2: 31 Snow from noon - 2:00 and 11:00 pm - midnight
Mar 3: 27
Mar 4: 32





Using my temperature scale, I had the following number of days of each temperature. (The first number is for just February and the second is cumulative for the whole year)

 < 9 :   0/0
10-14: 0/2
15-19: 0/2
20-24: 3/4
25-29: 1/5
30-34: 3/10
35-39: 6/17
40-44: 6/8
45-49: 3/4
50-54: 1/1
55-59: 3/4
60-64: 3/3 
(11 colors)

Using the more common scale, I would have ended up with:

 <  22: 3/8
23-32: 4/13
33-43: 12/27
44-53: 4/5
54-66: 6/7
(5 colors)

It'll be interesting to see how the colours change as you move into Spring now.
