Colder here. What's your temp? What ya burnin?

Well, shes sittin around +7 F right now, but they are sayin -17 F tonight. I ve got a charter bus run to the ski hill first thing tomorrow morning. That should be ducky............LOL. 75 here in the cave right now and both stoves purring along on a mixed diet. Ain't winter great?????????????

 

It's -5 heading to -12 tonight so we'll go with the Yellow Birch in the wood stove and click on the pellet stove in the other corner.

I think we received about a foot of snow, I plowed twice so the driveway is good to go.

One of these nights I'll throw the chains on the front tires of the Rhino an plow around the stacks again.

 

-5 just before hitting the hay. Going to load boiler with some Ash, some Pine, and some mixed blend pellets. We will see how it does tonight with the cold temps. Hopefully 7 hours.

 

7º outside 74º inside.....just filled the box with mix of hickory, sugar maple and beech. Good night, sleep tight, don't let the bed bugs bite.

 

Highs and Lows today 22 degrees F below normal. Within 2 degrees of a record tonight, at -11F. Is supposed to be -16 F Thursday night, +3F the high for the day.

 

Was down to 8 degrees but has gotten up to 13 right now.
Shoveled my front steps and walkway o this nasty 3-5 inches of frozen solid slush and rain we got today and ggravated a old injury lower disc.
It's a heating pad and acetaminophen night.

red oak chow like every other night

 

-23c = -10f now and topping off with some ironwood.

 

-22f this a.m. 71 here in the cave after a 9 hr. over night burn. Reload on mixed beech and maple taking place. Everyone have a good day and stay warm.

 

Right at -12 on the back porch this morning. I woke up about 4 and checked the boiler and it was down to about 7" thick of red hot coals. The Pine gives great big coals that look really cool when the boiler is running and has them all lit up bright. I added some more pellets and Pine cord wood to get it through to 7. It be cold, schools delayed two hours.

 

3 out
74 in
Lil woman got me out of bed at 5:30. Front door wouldn't open.
Ice dam on roof has water running down a rafter right over mud room door and between the door jam and door and strike plate. SOLID ICE. WTF ???!!!
Some beating and prying and all was good. Looks like an ice dam intervention today !

 

Sorry to hear that JustWood, hope your fixing goes well for you.

 

14f outside, somewhere over 83 inside. (That's as high as the Galileo thermometer goes.) Wifey's been loading the insert again...


Burning sawmill slats.

 

billb3: Hope that heals quickly.

 

Must have slept on it just right I was out shoveling much more carefully today. Used the bucket on the tractor to scrape off 5 inches of frozen slush with a half inch of solid ice. The snowblower just kept riding up on top of it. Nasty crap. Worried about breaking a shear pin so grabbed the tractor. Was gonna need it for down near the street, the street plow push was frozen solid. Nice sunny day got up to +22ºF. Looked at the pile of maple logs I've got to cut. Plowed out around the pile.

 

We had -25.4 on the Radio Shack Special this morning, the basement was 78, the living room was 67 and the sleeper was 65.

The floor in the living room was 73 and the floor in the sleeper was 70.

We had both the wood & pellet stove going last night.

 

Was about 5f below this morn....Cold but seen way worse so it's all good...

 

Hanging at about 25º and only expected to go to 20º tonight. Snow moving in late tomorrow. Upstairs at 73 right now, just opened the air up about 30 min. ago to burn down the coals before loading with a mix of what ever I grab.....have red oak, beech, hickory, ash, sugar maple and cherry in close to the stove.

 

33 raining hard with wind cozy 79 by stove burning of course lodge pole pine. Wondering if we will have snow.

 

Were at -16F this morning. NWS said to expect a low of +5F tonight, but the thermo just passed -7F heading in the wrong direction. I've started leaving snow over the parts of the yard where the waterline runs to the barn - I would be very sad if that froze! Had 12" of new snow yesterday, and expecting another 3-5" over the next two days. Just getting ready to put in the load of wood for the night.
