    Well we got somewhere around 6-8 inches last night and a little more here today. It has been cold here, 0-10 the last few days. Pellet stove at camp has been on 3, but today had it cranking on 8 feed and air. We spent about 5 hours at camp today. I'll leave it at 3 again. It keeps the camp about 46 at these temps.

    7-8 " Here in Dutchess county. Warmed up to 30 deg. today. Long day plowing, snowblowing, shoveling and cleaning cars.
    The good old 6039i is on HR3 auto and its 72 in the house. Gave her a good cleaning today and threw in a bag of sets. Not many folks like these stoves but I love mine !!

    Hard to tell how much we got. The wind kept moving it around. My daughter and her husband came over this evening and cleaned out my yard. This was after they paid someone to clean out their yard.

    Running on a level 2 with the Fahrenheit and the Enerzone is on On/Off (in case the temp does drop)

    16* outside and quite a bit of snow on the ground.

    These pics were taken yesterday.

    We got about 6". Saturday night at midnight 15 degrees and about 4" was down so I cleaned up then
    went to sleep around 1 am. Woke at 7:30 yesterday and it appeared about 2" more inches fell, but now the
    temp is up to 33 and it's friggin raining ugggh. I go out and clean up again, but this time it was like
    concrete. So glad I shoveled most of it the night before while it was fluffy. Neighbors were breaking
    their asses. OH, and my stove was still on 2 or 3. Rarely have to pump it higher than that since my house is only 1400 sq ft.

    69°F was a heat wave when we were using the electric heat or the oil heat in the previous house. Dang wood heat spoil's us! I'm cold if its lower than 72°F these days.

    Its was -1°F this morning and the first 2 bagger of the season. A bit earlier than I can remember, Don't usually get the 2 bags a day weather till February ish!
