    Don't forget the rain before that, then the sub-freezing Temps at night.
    I thought I left this freeze / thaw stuff in New England years ago.

    My driveway is about a quarter mile long and its going to be a sheet of ice in a few more days... Time to put chains on the Unimog.

    Currently -6° and then supposed to warm up a little overnight so that we can have 2 to 4 inches of snow dropped on us throughout the day. Right now I’m burning a mix of Beech and Yellow Birch.

    Totaly awsome day here mid 50's, mostly sunny and light breeze. Went out to Lefty's place and helped with his trailer. After that fired up the old 35 ton, 1 pull, and split some of Edwin's wood for him.
    Teach him for leaving the keys in the (my) splitter.
    Note: the loose piles are what I split today. Edwin always stacks as he splits to keep in neater.

    38F here with a stiff wind. Temps drop tomorrow, but no real snow forecast. We could use some to freshen things up. Burning a mix of lower btu "stuff" in both cookers.

    It was -8 an hour ago and supposed to be in the 30's later. No wonder I have a headache.

    It was 41 degrees! Now 39 so the temps will probably be dropping as the day goes. 9 for tonight.

    They still don’t have all of the secondary roads cleared from the last snow. Some people are just getting power back in time for another round of snow sleet and ice. For NC the next week will be the coldest so far. Not yankee cold, but teens is cold for us. I’ve been in NC since 83 and I don’t remember when there has been snow cover for over a week. The mountains is a different story.
