“Arctic Pipeline” bringing cold weather
- Thread starter Snagglefoot
- Start date
Doesn't look fun. I am in a drafty chalet-style log cabin - the heat goes up, up and away, lol.
And the old oil burner/Boiler is just working marginally. I better budget 100 bucks a week for #2 oil.
Southern NH First week outlook

I HAVE A BIG WOOD STOVE with a center of house brick hearth w/ interior exposed brick chimney to the roof 2 /12 stories.Get a wood stove!
Or maybe just more chinking??
But No wood, LOL. Also chimney liner is suspect so the wife is afraid of fire other than in the fire box.
This design - No chinking.
Pine logs sawed flat over flat 2 sides, 6 in height cants spiked together every 3 ft.
The heat will just be coming on every 1/2 hour after heat cycle end - instead of every hour with a ten min heating cycle
At least it's not 5 deg F to zero deg F at night like the last one a couple weeks ago

I remember a day in 1972 in Saskatchewan when it was -42 F and all us kids walked to school, uphill both ways.

Very cool! Very close to the point where F and C are the sameI remember a day in 1972 in Saskatchewan when it was -42 F and all us kids walked to school, uphill both ways.
I did! I hated that so much I tried to forget about it.
I dread the day we get that blast of cold air called the “Canadian Wiener Shrinker”!
I doubt your story. There are no hills in SaskatchewanI remember a day in 1972 in Saskatchewan when it was -42 F and all us kids walked to school, uphill both ways.
Here’s the weather map for Tuesday. Freezing in Atlanta and Dallas and near freezing in Houston and New Orleans. We’ll see. The west gets a bye.
I’m still protesting the switch from “relative humidity” to “Dew Point”. I realize they are two different measurements, but they do measure the same thing. I have no scale for dew point, I grew up with relative humidity.
Now, I have to go outside to see if it’s humid or not…
Somewhat related, in American football, we used to say “inside the 20 yard line”, then it switched to “Red Zone”, and now it’s “red Area”.
Seriously, who makes up these new terms for the same thing? Who determines when the new term replaces the old term?

The National Weather Service is showing this - which really doesn't seem like anything particularly special. I trust them more than anyone.
They say wednesday is a little colder than Tuesday. Of course, predicting the weather a week from now is like predicting the lottery numbers.

I'd almost love to be a fleet guy. Being a Shift LT is all but chewing up my soul these days.
I checked the 10 day and it sure looks like a Northern Illinois January forecast. Guess we're missing out on this one.
At least I never had a jail full of thugs to contend with.
