    No snow coming here through the next five days. We just got through some -15f to -20f air for morning temps, and now in the single digits to low teens until 20s and low 30s through Monday. Then the bottom falls out again. With the insert we are keeping the house 68-71f which is perfect for us, otherwise we are too warm.

    Headed down to the south side of zero again. All in all, it's been a mild winter.

    under twenty tonight. Throwing some hickory and recently split white oak

    looks like this weekend is catch up time. I estimate two weeks of wood remaining. My dangerous, partially cut through ash is still standing. If it falls, I am in spades.

    The temp here in the living room is hanging at 70 and the bedroom at 67.

    Our temp keeps dropping, we're at -14.7. I loaded up the Lopi with Red and Sugar Maple with two splits and two rounds of Ironwood on the top row.

    The basement was 84 with just the pellet stove going before I loaded up the wood stove. Up here in the living room it's 71 and 67 in the bedroom.

    Currently 26, headed for 17 by 7a. 71 in, just loaded up w oak and gave it enough draft to warm us up by light.

    Hope everyone in the path of this storm stays safe, and warm!
