Yup, this storm has us burning at the lowest levels, keeping the house at 72. Yesterday the wind and rain made 48 feel so much colder.

-1c/30f and I put the stove on this am and yesterday am...run for a couple hours then off

I think I will make it with five bags to spare for the season. I guess if July turns cold, I am ready.

A couple of weeks ago, I thought pellet season was over, but in the Hudson Valley NY it turned cold to around 45 degrees,
so I had to make a trip to TSC to get some. All they had was Green Supreme (ugh!). Weather forecast tells me it will still be
cold for a couple of days. This is unusual, but not unprecedented.

Today we hit 54F, twenty six degrees below normal; so we fired up the pellet stove again today, and will tomorrow morning, but I presume that's it. One bag in the hopper and TWO more in the basement, that's cutting it close.

I had to burn some yesterday and will burn some more tonight. I think that will leave me 8 bags left over.

Been burning in the P43 since Friday. Today will be the warmest day since Thursday (mid 50's projected) and with the heavy overcast/rain, no solar gain. Getting ready to put in another bag as soon as I'm off the 'net.

Leaves me with a little less than 1.5 tons in the basement - I don't know if I'll make it without resorting to the boiler

I'm just dreading the cost of pellets this fall. With everything going way up, I bet pellets follows suit. Field corn here is $7.25 a bushel. Dread thinking about that aspect too.

 

[SidecarFlip]

Been running the propane furnace off and on (mostly off). Both bottles are topped off anyway.

 

[Ocelot]

Just an hour on the cool mornings to take the chill out and maybe a short time in the evenings if the wife is cold. I’d rather do that than run the furnace

Just a week later, 92F and don't need an ignitor -- just leave a handful of pellets in the sun and they'll burst into flame on their own.

Yeah, starting Saturday the high temps temps were 92, 92, 93 then 94. Yesterday we got a break and it only got up to 89. At least this morning the low is finally at a place that opening windows will cool the place off.
