    Going to a low of 3 tonight it says, got a fairly strong wind right now that I can tell you is below 0, hauled home a load of hay today afterwork and it was dark by the time I got the tractor going, was outside for probably close to 2 hours and my face was burning when it started to warm up.

    Loaded the OWB with oak for the night.

    Did not get below zero overnight....thats always good. 6 right now and looking like 6 ish inches of snow waiting to get moved around by yours truly.

    Its still snowing now; I'll wait until it tapers off a bit and off course wait for daylight too.

    Currently 30 with a projected low of 25 overnight. I just raked the coals forward which conjured up some ghostly blue flames. I’ve been burning a mix of red oak, black birch and black locust tonight and the house is plenty warm.
