WTF.
I wonder if they do odds on the World Series.

Below was one long range forecast for the summer of 2011. Note the average rainfall forecast for NorthEast Pa. I think we stand at 20 some inches above normal and broke the record for the wettest year on record Sept 29.

What kind of crack were these guys smoking when they made this prediction? Above Average Precipitation for most of Texas? Yet here we are in the middle of the worst drought in over 100 years.
Gasifier said:That is putting your neck on the line. The rain never stops in the northeast, we have some wood (quaking aspen) that has been inside over a week that is still a little damp in behind the bark. It seems out of five splits one will be damp behind the bark, but it is burning fine.
Oh, that is not the wood I will be burning for the next few months. That has been under the porch for a long time. The wood I am burning now and should last me another month has been drying for over a year and has been under my porch since late last fall. I have a couple face cord of that left. When that is gone I will move to the ash that was brought in last week. Then I will move to the ash that I just brought in. A little pine and elm mixed in the last lot. Most of this has had a cover of clear plastic over it since last spring, over the top of the stack. Some since June. It is all under the porch now, and will be keeping us warm. Now I have to get to work on next years Ash. I wish it was a little colder weather to work on that though. At least all the bugs are gone. One week from today I have a long weekend off. That is going to be some cutting days. Do you have your wood for next year cut yet?
