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

-12f now but its still dropping.

 

Keep it there it’s now dropped 22* in 3 hours
Stove is choochin

 

-3 now and going down to -15 by morning. Mostly oak and a little bit of elm in the stove. With temps dropping like this I am burning more wood. Hard to get a 6 hour burn with these temps.

 

This would never happen in Maine....no shrinkage, no pepper. Bet on it.
Now you want to talk cold, that's another conversation.
Now we do have all kinds of stories about lobsters' claws that can crack a finger or such et. al. if you don't get the bands on fast
I'm going to sleep; it's 0949 H way past my hour.

 

2° out now.

Dropping down to -6° tonight.
This is the coldest it's been since March 4th last year.

Burning ironwood, and oak.

Furnace is quiet, so I'm doing my job with a choochin' stove.

 

-10 at this place with Pine and Rice coal in the Wood Gun.

 

We are at -12f now. My truck is running and warming up now before work.

I got word a few cold spots hit -38f yesterday morning at the end of the Gunflint Trail, MN this morning, which a skip and throw from our old homestead. It was -24f at the Cook County, MN airport which is closer to Lake Superior and our cabin. It is often 10-20 degrees warmer near the lake.

We never got above zero here in the greater NW metro yesterday. It is not really that cold compared to a true winter, or even last winter.

 

Just took a peek at the outdoor temp.


-25f. May just cancel the walk this morning!

 

12 feels like 3, 76 inside on coals. Supposed to be -10 or so tonight.

 

Sounds better than shoving a finger up your *ss and hollering “SNAKE” just saying...

 

-4 with oak in the ideal steel and ash in the Fireview. 75 inside. We finally are getting some cold temps. Only lasting a day then warming up.

 

0 and breezy outside. Only 2 zones calling for heat and the boiler is idling on yesterday afternoon's load.

 

14f this morning. I loaded up the PH and the T6 with Hickory and a little bit of Ash.

 

My cold is colder than your cold.

 

14 for me too, 68 inside. Ash upstairs, locust downstairs

15 now with highs in the teens today. Ash to start going with some Ironwood also

 

-14 deg F, feeding only 6+" sugar maple rounds (15% moisture after 3 years inside the shed) to the furnace. The furnace blower is locked on at high speed and the inlet draft is less than half open (normally fully open) with the 8" round triple wall stainless chimney drafting like a jet engine.

 

I saw -7° just now, so it may have been even lower than that.

I loaded the stove with ironwood, locust, and Norway maple this am.

 

Hard to see. -12 on my way in a few hours ago.
