    It looks like all those temps will be colder than ours, once Thursday rolls around it's looking pretty good.
    With the wind chill tonight we'll hit -32.

    I'm near the Mason/Dixon line, Adams County, PA, and a nice pic of my Oslo is posted up a page or two back in this thread.

    And it didn't get down to 0 here last night, actually it's 8.4 right now, quite balmy :)

    I'm into my prime 3yo Red Oak running both stoves. House is snug and warm. Haven't heard the backup propane monster run in several days. All is good. This crap has got to break @ some point, we're at the end of January. C'mon Spring..........................

    -11 on the thermometer this morning running Red Oak and Hickory thank goodness it's not that windy! My deck boards are popping and snapping so loud it kept waking me up all night. Some of them sounded like a shotgun going off!

    Definitely haven't heard the furnace kick on since it has been disconnected for years...:whistle:

    -3 here this morning and a wind that makes it feel like -20. My boiler's stomach was completely empty at 05:45 after feeding it a full seven course meal last night at 09:45. Have we made it to the midway point of winter yet? If we have made it past the really cold stuff, I think we better gear up for the snow that will be coming with the slightly warmer temperatures over the next month and a half. Hopefully we won't get tooooooooo much.

    I must be having a heat wave at 5°. The wind has died down overnight, so it's not that bad for the stove to keep up.

    8° this morning & minimal wind. This is about as low as my jotul castine can keep up relatively easily. Any colder and I'm loading frequently and fighting with coal buildup big-time. Oh, and burning some 3 year old cherry with some ~30 (not a typo:D) year old black locust.

    22F and the white stuff is falling, ground is cold enough for it to stick. The roads will be a mess for a couple days with the highs forecasted for tomorrow of 30.
