Here in the Northeast it seems like winter just doesn't want to go away. We had 5 nights in a row that it went down to 20 this week. Normally by this time of year burning starts to get sporadic, but we are still burning consistantly. Everyone around here seems to have used a good deal more wood than usual this year, and a lot of people who don't cut beyond the current season are running out. (I'm one of those anal guys who already has next years wood cut) We've had people taking the pallets and crate wood from the Exmarks and Cub tractors, (which is a big help to us at this time of year). Others are doing a little scrounging and cutting some dead wood now that the snow cover is gone. As far as buying wood goes, there isn't much, if any, seasoned wood for sale, so people who buy their wood are buring green stuff. In addition to the dragged out winter, the fact that heating oil has eclipsed the $4 mark has certainly contributed to higher wood usage.
So, how are you guys doing with wood supplies/usage in other areas?
