Slightly warmer here in PA. The folks who bitch about the cold are reminded by me that insects do not like cold weather and die off before they grow too large or too numerous.

We could really use some zero degree F days, maybe a week of them, to waste the mosquitoes and gnats in their winter hidey holes.
