Colder here. What's your temp? What ya burnin?

Here in Edmonton Alberta, things have warmed up considerably. -35 less than a week ago, and the past couple of days have been above freezing. A 70 deg F temperature change sure makes life a lot more bearable. It looks like the nasty stuff has decided to go visit you guys back east. I know the media is blowing things way out of proportion as always (talked to my dad in Ontario), but be safe anyway. Today on the stove menu is a mix of spruce and pine with a touch of birch thrown in. It's a toasty 75F on the main floor of the house.

 

4. above outside now, heading for negative territory again tonight. Just loaded Ash and beech about 6 pm got the air open a touch and the cat is glowing like the entrance to Hades. Freezing rain and wintery mix coming Sun. night, Mon. morning. good to know I am off work Mon. might have to keep the little lady here and heat this place up....

 

9° here in NJ, how's you's guys Chickens?
My chicken had an icicle hanging.

-4 here, wind in the -30's. Just loaded the boiler with red oak and sugar maple, and tried starting the truck, which I foolishly forgot to top off after running around yesterday. Plenty of battery, but No joy. Intake boot is frozen to throttle body, so no ether to try and get her going. Thankfully Mrs papi's mom-wagon fired up no problem, so it looks like I'll be taking that to work tomorrow. And here I just finished a conversation yesterday about dry gas being snake oil. Joke's on me I guess!

 

-4 f here and hard as nails Maple and Oak on the menu.

 

0 degrees in the city with no pity ... supposed to be a heat wave comin next week ... if I had a hotshot I could make a fortune thawing pipe right now !!!

 

-12 °F at 9 pm with the temperature rising to around 5 °F by 5am.
Three maple splits keeping the house warm at the moment.
High tomorrow 26 °F
I get to sleep in

 

Huh, never had to thaw antifreeze before, that'd be kinda funny if it wasn't quite such a serious issue. 9F here, may stay above 0 tonight, that'll be different. Oak in the furnace & log yard plowed out in anticipation of some warmer weather. Hoping to get back to fire wooding soon.

 

We are having a mild winter, has yet to drop below +10F. Been freezing rain last two nights. Currently 22F and im burning larch.

 

Would you recommend putting the antifreeze in my canola oil so it does not gel/freeze?
I never had a winter blend canola for a "bomb cyclone storm."

-6 in the city with no pity ... 59 deg 26ft from the Wood-heat ... burning very-little wood to bounce from 59-61

 

It made it to 30°F / -1°C here, about 200 miles south of saskwoodburner. I'm burning some junk Manitoba Maple (Box Elder) and saving the good stuff for the next cold snap.

 

With the wind they are saying it feels like -34.

Ash in the boiler that is working overtime.
Glad I’m NOT burning oil!

 

Nice temps there, its -15* here. Hope your staying warm, that wind bites.

 

Had same temp -21f last night in Minnesota went thru 400lbs of oak slabs in 12 hours in the boiler I'm heating 6600sqft .. it's 14f here now it feels like summer after 9 days below 0f lol

Having much wind?

 

That's good, that wind will help burn the wood stores. Back when I lived in northern Maine, when the wind was over 20mph I burned half again the amount of wood than a still day.
