    Well, I'll try to get used to it, but I guarantee, once I can deal with the 20's, it will drop down to the 10's!

    Hey I have total respect for anybody that can deal with those temps. But I also am on O2 and the cold gives me issues with breathing. Everybody is different.

    Yes ma’am. A balaclava may help. Once it’s colder than -10 I wear one, I probably have 6-10 different ones all different shapes and thickness for different temps. Be careful!:thumbs:

    We are warming a little, would be nice to continue up upswing if temps. Super cold is hard on things. A little spruce that was bucked and split the other day. On a bed of coals takes a few seconds for flames. 3FC41D6A-4A64-4A64-932D-C7E152C914D6.jpeg 00B1140B-F006-4309-A5F1-E0EFE9130F2E.jpeg E93AD3E8-DF52-4EB5-B6B2-369CCCB859AE.png

    Warm front is pushing the inversion out this should breakup our cool spell. In just a few minutes it warmed a degree and broke below-30. :rofl: :lol: 797A8F2F-4489-4899-842F-C53477AE1FE0.jpeg

    26* with a predicted low of 24*. Burning mainly Honey Locus with a little bit, maybe 10%, of Ash and Oak mixed in. Snow coming tomorrow. 2" to 4" in my area.
    I must be out of touch with reality. Could hardly find a parking space at the grocery store today. A lot of empty shelfs. Are people running that close on food?

    Red oak.
    Coals are starting to build with reloading more often trying to pump out more heat.
    Might need a couple extra shots of morning wood to unbuild coals.
