Anyone still burning??

[Swedishchef]

I actually haven't made a fire in 2 weeks. But that is because I was gone both weeks for work. Had I been here, the stove would have been lit. But now the temperatures seem more "normal".

The only thing I'm running now is the air conditioning. It doesn't get that hot up here but it can be humid so I run it to dehumidify. It was and still is a wet rainy year up here and the Mosquitos are so bad I can hardly be outside now. My arms can't flop around fast enough to keep them away! And when I open the door to the house they follow the dogs and I in so I keep a electric swatter handy to pin them between the wall and the buzzing and Kill ready swatter and FRY them to a hopefully very painful death!!

the 4TH

the 4TH

Thats hard to believe for the 4th but it could happen. I live in Sawyer County. Its the only county that says 39 in the upper left corner of the county in NW Wisconsin. Here is what my Intelicast app says for the 4th.

What? A forecast for 8 days out could be in error?!

gfs, bg . sometimes it gets it right, others no so much. most likely in the ballpark.

 

[WiscWoody]

I usually don't look at a forecast that many days ahead. I will have to keep an eye on the 4th in the coming days to see how it plays out.

Yes, I don't either. FWIW, this is what WeatherUnderground shows for your area:


NOAA says for July 4th in your neck of the woods: "A slight chance of showers and thunderstorms. Partly sunny, with a high near 77."

Maue is a hot air meteorologist. Perhaps cool air masses are not his strength?

as I said, the source is the GFS (broken link removed to http://www.ncdc.noaa.gov/data-access/model-data/model-datasets/global-forcast-system-gfs) many meteos bring out this stuff not just the hot air Dr maue. and bg uses the same source? here is the hot air doctor's original tweet <blockquote class="twitter-tweet" lang="en"><p>GFS 06z still over-cooking temps in SE -- on other end of spectrum, July starts w/Great Lakes trough &amp; chilly wx <a href="http://t.co/xmY9y0Eiar">pic.twitter.com/xmY9y0Eiar</a></p>&mdash; Ryan N.

My Intelicast app is showing lows of upper 40's for the 1st and 2nd which is chilly for July but it won't snow anyways! Lol... Perfect for a outdoor camp fire! And this looks in line with begreens wunderground forecast.

 

[WiscWoody]

Now the forecasted low for Wednesday night is 45 so maybe he had something there.

I just start my new burnin season with a little fire to take the chill out of the basement...... Here we go again for another 8 to 9 months

 

[WiscWoody]

I've been making at least two firs a day for a week now but today it was in the 60's so just one fire in the morning today.

 

[begreen]

Closing thread. Tis a new season, lots of northern fires are waking up.

Only God can make a tree.

Sorry, the devil made me do that.
