    I don't know. I do know that I would look at the thermometer before I left for work (2000's) with it reading -40 a number of times. I think the coldest I saw it was -46.

    Now remember, at that time I was living at the bottom of a river valley. It was not unusual to make the 1/2 mile drive out of the valley and have 5 to10 degree temperature difference on the vehicle's thermometer!

    I know northern Minnesota is blessed with cold temps also.......but even worse!

    -9 now; heading for just a few more overnight. Inside temp is 72

    LOL you say it's fine.

    We've been negative overnight on a few days, and not out of - temps for a few days recently. Tonight is -11, thankful it's not windy! The Blob snow drifts are back worse than previously. Must be a zillions tons of packed snow in the back yard, crazy!

    -11° out this am. 69° in the back hall, and the thermostat only set at 68°. That's a win.

    Honey locust and ash in the quadrafire, doing it's thing.

    Just reloaded with more HL and ash.

    Was 36 this AM @ reload. 3 splits of rock oak went in the firebox. 74 inside temp. The big chill this weekend is coming Friday night. Guessers are saying 9 for a low.
