    Yep, that's cold! I've never experienced anything below -20, but I can imagine it sort of. Here, it was 48 above & sunny. Some random "stuff" in the boiler.

    I think maybe I'm getting some heat drift from the generator exuast affecting my thermometer. I'm going to move it farther away . Another neighbor texted me said it held -50 almost all day at her house. And she is only about 350 yards away thru the woods.

    Darn that's cold. That's -45c! I've been in my area since 98 and only a small hand full of times has it gone below -40c/-40f now in the -30s range is a different story. Its -5c/23f right now. The stove hasnt been lit today out of laziness but I'm tired of hearing the furnace so its time to get a fire going.

    That's a 100F temp difference between our locales. No wonder I thought it felt like tee shirt weather here.:bug:

    41 and I’m burning like it’s 21. At least later tonight it’ll get below freezing again, finally. Burning a mix of white, red and chestnut oak.

    It's still 63 degrees out here, got the room up to 91, turning the fan on only circulated hot air, had to open the doors. Burning oak and other unidentified wood off the pile.

    32 this morning and looks like that is as cold as it gets for the remainder of December. Burning oak and the house is too warm for a long sleeve shirt.
