I wanted a wood stove but the prior owners spent a lot putting in a propane one. I must admit it’s pretty nice not dealing with clean up but I miss the crackling sound and the smell of an old fashioned fireplace.
Low of -11.6° at WXW2/Low of -22 at SLK
Low of 9.6° at WXW1/Low of 11 at HFD
Currently -9.9° here with a slight breeze. SLK has had a wind chill of -33 whenever they’ve kicked up a light breeze.
Got a halftime walk in. You know it’s cold when condensation from your breath is freezing on your face.
-3.6° and -14.6 WC with a pesky light wind. It’s -11 to my north where there is no wind.
Models did good with the cold here, at least so far. Below zero now with the whole night to go. Still working with a light wind so WC is even lower. WXW1 is at 24 and falling. Will easily top coldest of the year there.
Whiteface is -13 WC -48 according to BTV.
Moon rising, skies clearing, and temps slowly falling. I can hear the radiators revving, ready to mount up as soon as the wind goes light. Might be a big night with a fresh layer of powder laid down.
7.0/4.5 WC -6
Best part is that whatever happens is inside 96h. No long range tracking here.
And that is my big seasonal concern. Torpedo is a brilliant way of describing it. If it hits it can do legit damage, but if it is one of those crap unguided ones most of them zip on with sound and fury signifying nothing.
