That will be our weather tomorrow. I have put aside some punky hemlock. It will do the trick of warming up the house and take the wet chill out.

Ash,..not the wood, but actual ash.
Haven't cleaned the stove out yet.
Hasn't been below 50 in a couple of weeks. House has been comfy despite that.

In the 30's again last night, but the stove has been cold since early April. Ran out of wood at the house, then, and wasn't about to move more wood up to the house after seeing temperatures in the 60's and 70's thru most of March. Who'd have guessed it would be this cold in May?

I have an overabundance of kindling, so I fill the smaller stove with them and turn the air down once it catches, nice little burn.

Small load of assorted hardwood ends burning now - 60 deg when I walked in tonight, slight rain outside, so after waffling a bit i said screw it and lit 'er up, just taking the chill off.

Another small fire as I type this. Overnight temps single digits last week, warmed up a bit today but a cool n/w wind tonite. Taking the chill off, even though it's mid-June....
Wow. How far north are you? I really didn't expect to see posts here at this point in the year.

Northern Ontario. Not too far up, we had some beautiful weather a couple weeks ago, but dealing with the jet stream dipping down and cooling us off this past week. That, plus I'm getting wimpy in my old age.
Yeah Jet stream is reeking havoc for most of us. We get hot spells and cooler spells, but tolerable in the states. The thought crossed my mind a few nights ago to fire up the stove when it was in the low 40's, but resisted the urge. Anyway, do what works for you brother, and I hope you have enough wood stocked up for winter if you are burning at this time of year, and single digits certainly warrant it!

Single digits Celcius, that is, i think we hovered around the freezing mark one or two nights. Folks with gardens got a bit nervous. Cold rainy days for a bit. But I'm a weekend burner, so the woodpile doesn't take too much of a beating.
Oh you had me thinking 0 F. lol my bad. I was like damn. Anyway, I would be burning at those temps too.

Burning Aspen, and Spruce as I type. Got a bunch of 3-5" stuff I cut last year outta the yard. Nice quick heat, but don't turn the air down on the stove or you'll end up with too low of stack temps and dirty glass to boot.

By special request I need to revitalize this thread. Tonight I have shoulder tulip with new fire bricks installed. 1st stove burn of the season.
