In PS/SS, Harry was remembering all the times odd things had happened
(before he knew he was a wizard).  He was running from Dudley's gang
at school, tried to jump behind the trash bins, and ended up on the
roof of the school kitchens.  He also remembered the time Petunia cut
*all* his hair off except for his bangs (to hide the scar), and Harry
was so worried about showing up at school that way the next day that
he somehow regrew all of it overnight.  Also, there was the time
Petunia was trying to make him wear a horrible old sweater of
Dudley's, but it somehow shrank so much it couldn't even have fit a
doll; Petunia thought she'd shrunk it in the wash.  

Harry is remembering all this in Ch. 2, while on his way to the zoo.
