Our temp this morning was 27.5 with the temps up here between 68 and 69. We had a pine fire this morning with the temp up here this afternoon still at 69.
The Apple I've been burning is well seasoned and doesn't seem to leave any more ash than well, Ash. Does leave more than say OAK though. Supposed to be middle of the road as far as BTU's.I've been burning some apple lately, but it does leave a lot of ash. Clinkers too. It's that 50yr old wood I was left with. I thinks it's dry. Is it the apple, or age, not sure.
Yah it was cold over here in pa about a week or two ago but warmed up. I can't stand when it warms up unseasonably. I've never realized NV got so cold but it makes sense. This forum is so neat being able to talk with people all over, so much info.Sounds like some of you have had some mild temps. I’ve had quite the opposite, actually unseasonably cold here given the last 6-7 years. The temps here plummeted after the storm about 2-3 weeks ago with negative to single digit nights and highs of 0-20s. I did have a brief spell of warmth where we had teens at night and 30s during the day. But we’re back to the cold snap. Have had freezing fog last 2 days after another system rolled through; woke up this morning to -2 out house was 71 highs in the 20s with the wind chills making that singles-teens, and that’s occurring for the next several days again until another system moves through. Okay enough meteorology.
Been busting into the hardwood pile much earlier this year, good thing I had a decent stash of that elm. Tonight was mostly pine and a dash of elm again. Currently 9 out house is in the mid 70s. The master stays much cooler as it sits behind the stove and our curtains aren’t really anything more than decorative. Yesterday morning when I woke up, even I was a bit chilly so I checked and the room was in the low 60s. So I’ll be buttoning up on the window loss and see what that does.
On a final note I caught some decent secondaries and glowing.

Yeah agreed. I’m up in the northeast corner, we’re nothing like Vegas (in any way) so while my summers are desert like, The rest of my seasons are still there also.Yah it was cold over here in pa about a week or two ago but warmed up.
