The event of the season - 2 days of hell!

-16.2 and nearly steady.  Wind gusting over 20 at times still.  Not fake cold.  Snowing too, despite a hazy nearly-full moon.  Took a quick walk and it's surreal, 13" glacier pack, jet engine roar above the trees, and finger-numbing cold.  Thank God for 4 woodstoves and some black locust splits to burn!

Haven’t posted in a while, hope everyone is staying safe. Up in North Conway for a week of snowboarding, currently -16 with winds still cranking.

Looks like Portland just broke there all time wind chill record for what it’s worth. From the GYX discussion earlier..

After sifting through
our old paper book records, a -43 degree wind chill from 1971
appears to be the record to beat in Portland, at least since
1948.

I mean how fast does a house lose heat when power goes out . They are all just kinda hanging out with a bunch of blankets and it’s still 66 at their house 

Tmlp is so good, it's never out long. Brett said his is back on

Can confirm, back on. Was out for probably 45 mins tops.

At subzero temperatures, with consistent wind, I would say most dwellings would lose heat at 4 or 5 degrees per hour?
