    Some of these temps are crazy to me.... -20 degrees!!!! That's a rarity here in Northern Nevada. We usually get into the single digits in January and February but I only remember once where we had temps in the -20s. :shiver:

    Woke up to hail tapping on the west window.
    Tossed two splits of red maple in the firebox.
    38ºF outside. Mostly rain. Snow is awful close.

    Pretty lame winter so far here in Maine. Snows have been the same, wet or icy. More of a annoyance snow than a good "storm"
    On the bright side, wood consumption is way down as I've switched back and forth from the wood boiler to the mini splits 4-5 times this season. Something that I've never done before.

    Ended up with 3"-4" and barely below zero temps. Sitting right at -2f.

    So far, the weather forecast seems to be noting more than hype. Go figure!

    ... and they wonder why people don't heed the weather reports, the sensationalism that pervades mostly to sell ad time and go out and travel or go about their usual routines.
