       Whither the weather?In our house, we have at least a dozen thermometers. I guess you could say we are interested in knowing why we feel hot or cold.I've been exploring getting even more into weather...no, not by going out to stand in pouring rain.I gave my wife a 5-in-1 weather station for fun.We are exploring humidity, rainfall (so far, none), wind speed and direction...and, of course,  temperature.

       The next step is to see how we can look at the sensor readings without standing beside the very pretty display.I found instructions explaining how to hook it to a Raspberry Pi running software called "Weewx" and a web server so we can open a web page on our cellphones to check the details any time we want.Old habits do not easily fade, so we will continue to check the many thermometers around the house as we  walk past them.

       @wauz Ah, the music of my youth...though, I will admit, I do not remember this particular song.A 45rpm by Buddy Holly and the Crickets "may" have been the first record I ever purchased, though.

       @AlgotThe Rolling Stones covered it. That made the song part of our cultural heritage, too. Back then, American music was kind of filtered in our media, therefore RnB in general is biased in perception to Billboard Charts.The Mod movement in UK worked hard against that, but after all, German media stuck on covers. It took long time Germans to take notice of the origins.It was first YT, that told me about Big Mama Thornton or Ruth Brown, Sister Rosetta Tharpe and many others
