Just another wonderful day in GA. Check out that nice heat index...just need a big fan and you would have a kiln to dry that wood fast.
I've been known to gather a steel bucket of coals from the owb to heat my immediate workspace in the garage when it's real cold out.. Works like a champ.
Simple solution, woodstove in shop!! I can put more clothes on.. Build bigger fire.. Currently 68.. Put AC in as supposed to get to 90 plus this weekend I'm gonna melt!!
But if I am wrenching on my vehicle the last thing I want is arms that are 6"s in diameter so I can't fit in tight spaces or to wear gloves. I hate gloves and can't do a thing with them on. Only latex or nitrile gloves allow me the dexterity like when I work on stuff. And I am not lucky enough to have a shop. Just carports or covered open sided sheds.
I don't wear gloves either!! That's why I like heat.. I get it clemsonfor I have lived in Australia and hot places over 90 I go swimming.. Lakes here rarely go over 70 ish
Our lake water surface temp is probably hotter than your air! ! Haha it's 91f surface temp on the lake. And this is a lake that's 60 to 75 foot in much of the main channel and is 80,000 acres!! I'll try to remember to take a pic of my depthfinder this weekend.
I havent checked in on this thread in awhile.... We were 9c/48f and drizzle this afternoon at 1 pm. My furnace has been on and off again tonight but I cant be bothered to get a fire going. After burning for 7-8 months Im good with the stove being cold for awhile. The nice thing about our area of the Rockies getting a coolish June is we are able to push the forest fire can down the road a bit. Looking forward to some summer weather though.
Wow. I can't even comprehend that. I don't even like a hot tub that's over 101° f . Heated shop ! Mmmmmm Good !!
I had to look it up but for reference water temps are currently 64 degrees and lake is 435 square miles. Supposed to get to 90 today there will be fog!! The town 25 miles south of me has only hit 100 degrees 4 times since late 1800s. Heat warnings all over tv.. Current temp is 74.. It may get to 90 but only from maybe 5 to 630 pm
Sunny and 94 as of 1PM. Heat warning until 7 this evening with the possibility of the heat index getting close to 115. I did my errands this morning, staying inside this afternoon.
93 with a real feel of 104. I guess it's going to be warmer tomorrow. O well I guess it's summer time.
Not to bad today, got to go spread some pinestraw and cut some grass after working 7-3 shift today...
At La Crosse it is now 98 and feels like 114. I will go out and get the mail after the sun sets a bit
