It's warmed up to 5 degrees (-15 Canadian) OWB still had plenty of burn in it, the garage stove was skinny, not enough coals to touch off good seasoned ash. A couple shovel full of coals from the OWB and the garage is warming up. Garage door motor went south,,gonna' have to google search that. Be safe out there.
Sitting at -24 C (-11 F) , or -34 C and -29 F if you count the wind. Stove full of ironwood and locust. Just kidding! Same old boring poplar.
It's 31f right now suppose to drop to the teens tonight, got some ash going right now and I'll have the locust ready for tonight till Saturday then it suppose to warm up a hit
Woke up (at 4:30 am) to 9, it went up to 16, and it's back down to 11 right now. Forecast low of 8. Snow and wind all day, and I can't tell how much of the white stuff we got, but there's a fresh inch on the roof, so let's go with that. WAAAY too many coals in the stove this morning, so I've been burning those down all day. Might have that done in time for the overnight load. 72 IAT at the moment.
