Interesting to hear the weather reports from Massachusetts to Quebec today.
We were at -25° centigrade with wind chill a couple of days ago and now we are at +18° of measurement at my home in the south west of the province.
A chilling day will be coming after a lot of rain tomorrow.
It’s the month of February not April … 
PS: listening to radio from different places quite confirm the up and down patterns …

The name “glass harmonica”… refers today to any instrument played by rubbing glass or crystal goblets or bowls. The alternative instrument consisting of a set of wine glasses (usually tuned with water) is generally known in English as “musical glasses” or the “glass harp”.
When Benjamin Franklin invented his mechanical version of the instrument in 1761, he called it the armonica, based on the Italian word armonia, which means “harmony.”
The Harvard Dictionary of Music:
Among various compositions for the glass harmonica, Mozart’s Adagio in C major (K. 356) and Adagio and Rondo (K. 617)… both composed in 1791, are the most interesting. They seem to require an instrument equipped with a keyboard mechanism such as that constructed in 1784.
