Hello, we are about to start experiencing a high wind event here in Virginia. Sustained winds of 40mph with gusts up to 60 or 70mph are supposed to start tonight and go on all day tomorrow and into Saturday morning. Since the ground is saturated with rainfall, trees are expected to come down and power may be out for a while. This is my first year with a wood stove - should I start a fire with such high winds outside? What are the risks? Sorry if I sound naive but with such high winds, is there risk of the air coming back down into the wood stove at high speed and causing an issue?
Thanks!
Thanks!
