The Whitehurst Diaries: Sweater Weather 'Like the competent woman of Proverbs 31, I am not afraid of the snow for my household, having assured myself each year that all who fall within my care are well equipped to brave the weather in warm jackets and gloves, with a special emphasis on the comfort of wooly sweaters.' - SHARON WHITEHURST Click on headline for complete diary entry, photo(s) By Sharon Whitehurst SANDERS RIDGE, PELLYTON, ADAIR CO., KY (Sat 07 Jan 2017) - I don't have a digital thermometer that announces the outside temperature in increments of degree. The white dial with its black numerals and slender red needle, mounted beyond the glass of the north-facing kitchen window, is one my father would have recognized. At 6:15 this morning the needle was firmly lodged at 8 F degrees above zero. I eyed the gauge as I moved quietly about the kitchen, chunking wood into the glowing innards of the stove, thawing ice from the outdoor cats' water dish, measuring coffee, warming a blueberry muffin. By 8 A.M. the red needle had barely moved a degree upward. Now, at 9:30, with the sun fully emerged, we have gained 5 degrees from the dawn reading.
