    Hope you don't get the weather "they're" talking about. Plenty of time for that later on.

    36 here after 70 yesterday. I love The Berkshires! Saw some snow, which was sticking at the higher elevations. Boiler has a smallish load of pine, poplar, and willow cooking. First 24hr burn so far of the season.

    I think that's well south of us.

    There are times when our weather comes from an airport 37 miles north of our small town and there are times when it comes from the Saranac Lake NY airport which is about an hour southeast of us in the Adirondacks, that's where this weather report is coming from, I hope.

    45 degrees, assorted uglies in the quadrafire. Beech, basswood, and some elm I think.

    Was 70 and raining here today. No fire needed. Colder weather is on it's way so that will change tomorrow. Some decent winds tonight so might some blow down to cut up tomorrow:)

    It's not overly cold here but it is -2 c with a good frost outside. Had a great day in the bush today with my son dropping a few trees. Very dry and ready to burn. Here's some larch that I put in the stove for an over night burn. First pic was five minutes in and the second is about 1/2 hour or so later with a stove top temp of 560f.

    It's in the low 50s right now but the week ahead looks like highs of 40s and lows in the 30s so it's looking like my first fire is coming soon! I'd like to start one tonight but it's not quite cold enough in the house yet. If it hits 62 in the house I will be lighting the fireview. This time last year we were already in full time burn!

    This afternoon it warmed up some with the sun out. About 50 in the sun I would say. With the wind blowing a little. But the temps look to remain cool at night this week. Soooo, the X27 is out and about! Making some smaller pieces to get the first fire of the season going in the boiler. :rootintootin:
