Dear Irv and Calendrists,

Thanks for the SF spreadsheet. I look forward to checking it out.

Programming an automated calculation of the sine-wave parameters to achieve a match with a temperatures-table would be quite a task (which is why I haven't done it), with the system of nonlinear equations, but manually adjusting the parameters will get a match too.

One other thing: Victor mentioned a Texas town, Alpine TX, with anomalous temperature-lag. In the record-books, Alpine likewise seems to have unusually short temperature lags. So Alpine would be a good town for which to make such a spreadsheet.

Santa Cruz, too, has fog setting in during late summer, clearing up during September, giving a two-peaked summer. My Santa Cruz lag measurement was for winter, partly because of the summer fog, and partly because the middle of thermal winter seemed a worthwhile celebration day to determine.
