    Yes, this will be our coldest stretch this heating season, Wednesday night -24 with a realfeel of -46.

    We heat from the basement so the wood stove will have Beech going starting Monday afternoon and the pellet stove will be loaded so we can run both on the coldest days or nights.

    The snow stopped about 10 minutes ago and now the sky is blue and the sun is out. Temp had dropped 2 degrees in 5 minutes. Supposed to drop down to -2f this evening and by Wednesday night -31. Here comes winter............... We ended up with about 8" of snow.
