Feeling the Heat
Woke up yesterday morning to a cold house(Ran out of home heating oil ) We burned 250 Gal of oil for the month of December. Almost double our normal use. Crazy.

Laundry room drain froze up today . . . first time that has happened since we bought the house back in 1996. Yup . . . it's cold.
I have started keeping a space heater in the master bathroom. It is the farthest water has to travel from our pressure tank, the farthest from the stove and I am afraid a pipe is going to freeze overnight.
if you're not going to be using it for an extended period of time yes, if you're using it quite often then no since when you use it you will just flush the antifreeze out of it, you could add some to it after every use if you wanted to though, just make sure it's rv antifreeze not automotive
19.4 deg F at 0600, 24 hours ago it was -13 F ...better than the -22f after xmas. Supposed to stay like this till end of month.
12 now. Not nearly as punishing as zero the last couple mornings. 
And room temp is 64 instead of 62. BL fire in the hole! 
Today will be the warmest here this week..about 25. Looks like we'll be out of the woods come Sunday.

24 and still snowing here in Maine.
It’s warm enough that I should be able to sleep through the night and not have to reload, but I’m worried about power outages so I’ll reload around 2 probably. This red oak was from a massive tree I took down 3 years ago and is awesome for overnight burns.
Stay warm everyone!

Anything in the double digits after all of last week feels downright balmy . . . on Wednesday when the temps went up to the mid-20s I saw a couple guys in their T-shirts outside (albeit I don't think they were planning on staying outside for any great length of time.)
-3F this morning and we got another 6" of snow. 1F now and will be -7F tonight.
Next week we get a break with some temps in the 20's and 30's.
Using the new boiler more this week then I did all last year. 500 gallons..ready to go..the Buderus purring away. And of course...and fully stocked NC30 that is destroying my wood pile.

And of course...and fully stocked NC30 that is destroying my wood pile.Was -7 at 8:00 this morning in SE Michigan, currently +4. Have transitioned from my ash to the oak. Staying toasty.
Saw a dog running loose today, looks like it's cable snapped from being so cold since it was dragging part it around. Couldn't get it to come, so hopefully it made it back home or someone else was able to get it inside.

Jake, I love the pic. We now have four cats and a dog. This is a familiar scene... We count 5. Is one hidden off the cot Or two huddled up? You said "most". Wife will not stop bugging me until we get an answer
Okay, never mind. We (I) didn't see the black one nearest the stove. Nice cozy scene. We agreed to stop at four, but it's hard to resist taking another rescue home sometimes when you know they're going to have a hard life otherwise. Good going Jake.

Sorry . . . the correct answer is six . . . which you did get on your second try at least.
The other two cats are anti-social.
I feel for you folks. They had Kent, CT, my wife's hometown, on the news last night. Ice flows melted and released clogging the Housatonic causing a lot of flooding. And now it will be refreezing, right over Rt. 7. This scene looks to be playing out in NY state too. What a mess.
Minor flooding around here . . . went out to check on our nearly finished ATV bridge we put in this Fall . . . all I can say is I'm really glad we listened to this old guy who had a bucket loader when he advised us to build the bridge on two concrete blocks (approximately 2 1/2-3 feet tall) stacked on top of each other.
At the time it looked a bit silly since the stream had maybe two or three inches of water in it . . . yesterday the water was maybe 6-8 inches from spilling over the top of the bridge and block.
