Feeling the Heat
This is one of the two reasons I build my racks to start 6" off the ground. The other is so the dogs have no problem patrolling the yard and thus keeps any animals from thinking that 6 cords is a multi-family dwelling
It also does make it easy in most of the winter since the bottom isn't frozen; unless it was last year when you would have had to made racks start at least 18" off the ground! Whew, that was a lot of snow last year.
But to answer the question from my perspective, no I have not found much of a difference in the bottom layers and that is checking with mm.

Never noticed any difference . . . then again I guess I wouldn't be able to really tell since the wood spends the first year outside and the next year in a woodshed . . . and I have no idea where the wood that was on the bottom is located in the woodshed -- on top, on bottom or in the middle.
