    13F here, supposed to stay above 0 for a couple nights before it nosedives again. Wind's supposed to get brisk from the WNW tomorrow at 15-25MPH. That will suck & suck the heat right out. I'm on pace to burn close to 12cord this winter. I'd better check my chain supply for when this stuff breaks. Gonna need to do some real cuttin this year.

    10 out now, heading for -4, 73 inside with beech and maple. I will load for overnight in about an hour, not sure what all I will grab but some black locust will be in the mix.

    Been hanging around 10 OAT most of the day, and is still. We were out for a few hours and the IAT went down to 70, so I did the coal thing and added a split of Oak. Went back up to 73. IAT is now back down to 70, so I just put in 3 more splits. Trying to get the IAT up before the overnight load. If that doesn't work, the furnace will be used to do it.
    I'm going to guess we'll be back to 68-70 by morning, but I'll take that w/o much complaint.

    Zero degrees right now. Both the upstairs Progess Hybrid and the basement T6 are running strong. There are fans on the floor to help the air move around and help balance out the heat. So far I’m keeping it warm and toasty.

    I'm at work so I don't know what my wife is going to load. I hope it's a load of big splits, and I told her where the secret stash of Osage was. Hopefully the stove will be full of coals when I get home.

    It's warming up nicely out there.

    -3 with a feel of -16. I think we just may hit 10 above today!
