    It's been raining all day so the driveway is like glass but a bunch of ashes from the outside fireplace from this spring went on it with some sand from our property and more tube sand.

    I'm not sure what the outside temp is but it's 70 up here with a load of Ash and some Ironwood going in later for the overnight fire.

    It's 35.2 out at the moment.

    It’s around 32 here now. Rain with sleet mixed in hitting the windows. It rained a good amount here today. Lots of snow went away. We are hoping this changes over to snow quick and we get away with little to no ice. I’m going to loads the boiler up with Beech and Maple for the overnight. Temps suppose to be down to 14 by 8am. Now calling for 3-9”.

    What a joke, 2" of rain yesterday and 48. Now 18F and dropping with about 4" of snow. Why did it have to warm up and make a mess. Ice under the snow is making some real fun.:doh: We were having a decent winter too, now it's a slick mess. Oak in both the boiler and stove.

    6 degrees out, 84 degrees in. White oak churning out the heat. A sip of Jack Daniels has a high BTU output, warming up my insides. Feel the burn!

    I was guessing 6-8.... but the "official" number they gave was like 9.3". It was blowing and drifting so much it made snow removal interesting...

    57 out and It's supposed to change from a southerly wind to northwestly wind and temps will drop. The good part is that the glacier of ice on the driveway is gone.:thumbs:

    Spring comes later in the mountains here. But spring will pop out here and there, enough to keep the roads muddy. But March is when the warming southern moisture rides up the coast and runs into the cold Canadian air coming over New England and create North easters and we get blizzards with deep snow.
