A small fire won't heat up the stove (or the room) very much, but will do a lot to drive out some moisture.
Start a fire in it! The temporary discomfort heat wise is well worth the piece of mind that there isn't water sitting in some crevice of the stove causing it to rust for the next month or two. Just my opinion......

Ya I don't have to worry about people coming over....There are certain advantages to having the neighbors think you're a little off your keel.
The last person that came over was incinerated, why else would you be burning in august?Ya I don't have to worry about people coming over....
