New Plugin

Over lunch today, I added a new plugin to the site. rp-blogroll pulls the sites i read daily from blo.gs to the right side of the page. XML is yummy.

Birthday Weather

I found on the Old Farmer's Almanac site that you can get weather history for a specific date and location, such as my birthday. It was around a clear day, 50 degrees, with 12 to 30 mph winds. Seems just about my ideal weather.

So I got to thinking… What if your favorite type of day, weather-wise, is determined by your first day outta tha womb? Clearly I'd need more data points. The dataset of people who's birthdates I know, and who's favorite type of weather I know is very small. I decided to sample them all.

Meg's favorite type of weather is sunny, warm (I would say hot.) and having a light breeze. What does the Almanac say? 70-80 degrees, sunny day, light 5 mph breeze. Meg probably would like it a few degrees warmer, but I'd say this is pretty close.

Having exhausted my research subject pool, I am turning to you, gentle reader. What is your favorite weather? was it like that on your birthday?
