First Fire of the season

[Deleted member 150358]

We're close to a record for precipitation. The records 40 inches or so. Heatwave this week. Burned a little off and on the past 2 weeks. 9 cord in the shed hope to have some left over. Good mix of black cherry and oak with a little popular and box elder.

wow, were in middle of heat wave here in TN, leaves are falling because of lack of rain rather than change of season it gets into 90's every day and outside burning has been banned

Not a heat wave, but summer won't let go, evenings are coming off though and at least the humidity had been relatively low during the day. Rain has been very little, leaves started turning a month ago and are not starting to drop. Grass is brown and dry. Dry summer, very different from last year.

Ha we just had a typhoon go through last week View attachment 760506 View attachment 760506 View attachment 760507 and it raped the local Navy base. dropped 4 big trees and totally blocked the womble gate access. the front "main" gate was open but its hard for trucks to run through it due to the bollards and barriers. what a cluster fark .

Since then the temps have started dropping here in kanagawa. I am sure the Cabin will need a fire in the next couple of weeks.

Well it happened for me last night, it was 60 in the house so I thought why not. 6 pieces of wood to get it going from around 6pm and still 70 in here this morning.

45 this morning but going to be close to 90 Saturday and Sunday.

We lit up on Saturday night. We have had the air conditioner on every day since.

Ahh ... That sounds so nice. It was 90°F yesterday here in southern PA. The high today is 80, at least one more 90 degree day next week. I want to say we had a similar Indian summer last year too. Soon enough, though...

28 yesterday, 46 this morning. The thermostat inside hasnt dropped below 67 though. I suppose how many weeks straight of air conditioning weather packed a lot of heat energy into the building that is now escaping.

Snowed off and on Sat nothing was sticking though. This was this morning, snowed off and on today. Supposed to get into the 20's next few days for lows.

I'm guessing your in the panhandle then, local news said it was gonna get hit good.
The closest small town here is Colville, WA. I'm about 12 miles SW in the foothills of the mountains.

Oh ok, sounds like a nice area.

It was snowing several times today.

We had to run the propane once each day since Tuesday to get the chill out of the house.
