Was up to 19F here, while the furnace was configured for 0 to 10. Got up to 78 inside, but oh well. 17 now, & not real windy, so should be a nice warm nite. Oak & maybe a little Cherry for the overnight burn. Heatwave tomorrow, 20's LOL. Have to be careful not to overheat the place.
I don't look at the thermometer in the basement very often but after all these cold days it's colder than usual , 42 down there, floor is cold. Got up to 16 today Burning some ash, oak and Hickory chunks 75 up inside, 15 out, not as cold tonight, low 13, forecast is 27 tomorrow 42 on Tuesday
With just the P.S. going the basement temp was 80 (71 up here) so with the outside temp at 0, I started a fire off the coals in the Liberty.
Holy crap! Went outside to fire up the OWB and it is snowing and blowing like all get out! Wind chill is still around -10.
Just like the Dr. answered when I told him one of the kids swallowed some coins.... "This too will pass"
Indeed. here... hedge, WO, BL, whatever I got is going in the stove. Just notalot of any of it left....
Sitting at a balmy -29 c (-20 F) at the moment, and the wind kicking up later it's supposed to feel like -37 C. Pine running the reactor. I had tried to guess where to bury the pine in the woodshed last year, and apparently I guessed right.
I take the cold in stride, and while I don't like it, I accept it. But...here's a guy who can't. Cold start to Saskatchewan winter ignites weather rage
16f here in Possum Hollow at 1238 hoosier time. Hastings is idling along downstairs, slowly paying for itself. Princess is chewing through the junk shoulder wood upstairs like wifey at the Golden Corral. 85+ upstairs, pretty steady 72 downstairs. No heat in the master bedroom, though, so that 85 degrees out in the living room doesn't overheat us too much.
Thanks for sharing. For those of you who havent heard this yet you should give it a listen because it is so funny!
