    Around freezing temps today, but snow is supposed to be here this afternoon.

    But it's already flurrying out.

    1-3" supposedly. Then maybe rain? Whatever.

    Burning uglies and chunkies. Elm, oak, ash, maple chunks...

    This morning the weather guessers were saying we might see snow around noon. Almost 2:30 now and the snow line is still south of La Crosse, but slowly coming north. Brought wood in this morning to top off the wood boxes.

    40*F here and burning down some coals. It's supposed to rain all night till noon tomorrow... yuck, I hate dealing with the mud... We've only had a few frozen ground days that I depend on to get around out in the woods. I'll put in a load of Ash tonight at bedtime to keep the house toasty overnight in this damp weather.

    26F this morning. I didnt do an evening fire yesterday, because everyone runs in shoulder season mode in mod February, right? House was 61F this morning. Half a load of oak just went in.

    19f here. We were -24f the Sunday Morning at the cabin. I drove us home 25o miles in a steady snowfall yesterday afternoon which warmed us up. Heading down below zero again mid-week before 30s for the weekend.

    13 out 76 in on coals still. Supposed to start snowing about 10 am, ending around 10 pm with 3-5” possible but now they’re waffling about the rain/snow line so as usual it’s wait and see time. It’s amazing how much less wood we’ve used vs last year so far.

    Thanks Midwinter! They’re predicting a quick changeover with a little ice right during the evening commute so it’ll be interesting. Hopefully not too much.
