    Not much snow in our forecast either. The sun did come out today which felt nice when I was pushing back some snowbanks.

    We have 5 right now. Another semi-clear night with the moon providing light outside.

    Most of the snow will be staying south of us.

    It's about to snow here tonight. Thor and Screwloose , looks like you guys will get more than we will, but you never know. I'm not going anywhere tomorrow any way. Snowblower is all gassed up.

    They say we could get 4-6" here through tomorrow at some point in the day. South of Milwaukee all the way to Chicago by lake Michigan could get really dumped on, but if the wind blows just right, we could get lake effect blasted too.

    Ash, honey locust and sugar Maple tonight. 29° now.

    Not nearly cold enough to give the Jotul a good run for the money.
    Toasting mostly 1.5 year old oak, that (I should test w/mm) but gets the stove to 5-600*F fairly easily. Been running this thing 24/7, cleaning the ash tray x2/day, cooking soup, coffee, and tonight a big potta bone broth.

    30* dusting of snow last night, now feeezing rain. Only 70* inside have ash and BL cooking. Brought a cart load of shorts and uglies down last night. Ash, BL, oak, coffeetree and whatever else. As I passed by my recent stack of BL that needs split, I couldn't resist grabbing some of the 4"-7" diameter logs of standing dead BL sitting there.

    Overnight low of 2 then warmed up to 11 now. Just a dusting of very light snow; the kind you could use a leaf blower on!

    71 in the stove room overnight. I didn't hear the furnace run one time.

    24° out now and still snowing. I cleared the patio with the shovel.. It's really hard to judge snow amount from the patio, especially when it is windy as the snow drifts there. That's a bit and it's not done.

    Sugar Maple and ash in the quad.
