    Tomorrow is supposed to be cold, probably fire up the stove again tonight and all day tomorrow. The usual Winter weather will be back by Thursday night. Looks like today is the warmest day of the week.

    Good morning, a damp, foggy 48 with a chance of rain.
    Been burning a mix of mostly soft and hard maple, just a couple hunks at a time.
    Also shutting the owb down before i leave for work.
    Too soggy/muddy to make more far'wood.

    37ºF OAT 20-30 mph winds, maybe more sometimes.
    rain doesn't seem too bad yet, put my rain gauge that can't freeze out for the night/day tomorrow.

    Filled the wood bin with 3 or 4 days worth of my 4 year aged red oak.

    In the middle of a storm now, up to 12 inches of snow and then wind. Mixture of Red Elm, Green and White Ash and a little Bur Oak once in a while.
