Effect of Temperature on Tuning
By Scotty Greene

Since it is winter here and indoor temperatures at the museum are
well below normal summer temperatures, does this make our pianos flat
or sharp?  Is there any reliable value for how much a 10 or 20 degree
change in temperature changes the pitch of organ pipes?
