First winter in northern MN in my 65 years that burning 24/7 has only occurred 7/24 - probably not more than 7 days so far this season that have had to burn for 24 hours. Day after day, start the stove in the morning, let it burn out because it is so warm outside that the house would become a sauna. Start in the evening, let it burn out, ditto.
Forecasts for the next week remain with daytime highs into the 30's and lows in the 20's; last two days the highs were 40's to near 50. No snow. Typical Jan temps would be low's into the -30'sF and highs around -10F. Birds are singing their spring calls; many birds have not even migrated south. Still slapping mosquitoes and picking off ticks - LOL.
65 years of environment is getting really messed up. Mother Nature must be choking and suffocating on all that added CO2 us highly intelligent bi-peds are spewing into her breathing space.
