I was just now lying on my living room floor looking at my fire in the Jotul and I started hearing some sleet hitting the skylight up above in the cathedral ceiling. I live in Western NC where we are under a freezing rain warning tonight through tomorrow noon. This got me wondering if any members have ever had trouble lighting their stove and then discovered your rain cap had gotten coated in ice, or perhaps drifted over with snow? I imagine if this happened and you didn't know and tried to light a fire you'd have smoke coming out the door pretty quick. Once you shut the door the fire in the stove would likely smolder for a time until it burned out. I doubt you could build enough of a fire to generate sufficient heat to melt the snow/ice clear.
