    thought I’d share. Today in the northeast, we saw sunny skies, about 70 degrees, quite low humidity, and decent breeze. Non-scientifically, I always imagine that the wood stacks lose 1 percent of their moisture on a day like today. Could be wrong, could be right, not sure.

    In the South, some of the best seasoning occurs in the fall following our first few "cold" fronts. These fronts are usually dry then the humidity drops very low, the sun shines, the wind blows, and the temperature is in the low to mid 80's.

    Nice! This year in MI about 1% of our days have been like that. About 3.5 out of the year LOL. Best weather going for just about anything.

    And hang onto your hat brother. A big heat wave coming right at us along with the threat of thunder showers. That means the humidity will make things very unpleasant.

    Yeah I'm fairly certain September-October are the most productive seasoning times here in AL
    Right now my wood is probably increasing in MC
