San Antonio

Happy Birthday @Lucario Runner

 

Thanks man. I gifted myself a day off.

 

Nice, any plans this weekend?

 

Happy Birthday Robert! @Lucario Runner

Any modding going on today?

 

Good morning San Antonio!

 

Modded my bed into a cocoon and am on a mission to not leave it today. Way too cold. Lol.

 

Morning Linwood - wise move

Morning Mark - cross your fingers every time

Morning Robert - Happy Birthday!

Morning Robert

Good Morning SA! Yeah, 15* overnight. All the plants dipped to 39* or so, but not much I can do about it now. Heater in the greenhouse rans from 3:00 PM yesterday, and still going. Sunshine has it up to 47* at least. Might run an errand, or not. Only other plan is how to make the sunroom warmer! Mini-split heat pump just doesn't contribute when it's below 30*.

 

Good morning Kurt, yeah when it starts getting down 15 below freezing, it’s a losing battle. My truck said 12*F this morning at 745. Felt like -3 with the wind chill

 

Only thing I can really do with the greenhouse is to bubble wrap the roof. And that's a pain. When it was cold before, in the 20's, it did not dip below it's setpoint of 45*, and warmed it up pretty quickly to 55*, where it would cycle back off.
Second ever wind chill warning in this area. EVER. First, freezemageddon of 21, of course. All this once in a generation weather keeps repeating!

 

Another small ceramic heater might help to get the temps back up to where you want them more quickly. Definitely has to be the wind that is doing it, it just sucks the heat out of everything. I am going to be finding some stuff to do inside myself today. And yeah no kidding, we've had some potent storms over the past few years. Seems like they're becoming more of a normal thing

 

lol

I moved the dogs the wind blocked part of the yard…they are happy.

 

Happy Birthday @Lucario Runner

 

Afternoon folks! Happy birthday! @Lucario Runner

 

Happy Birthday @Lucario Runner!

Thanks y'all. Starting to be among the living ordered crab legs. Maybe I get enough will to retune the truck.

 

Another chilly morning…hope you all live though the family visits….lol

 

Morning Mark - just our son coming over for tonight and tomorrow - our usual crowd.

Good Morning SA! Few degrees warmer this AM, and not as cold for as long either. The light wind really helped with the greenhouse temps, as they stayed where they should all night, only dipping once to 43*, and rocketing back up with the sun! Garage did better too, after I raised the temp a little bit (I'm really only heating and measuring a small area). Made a perfect, long burning fire last night, and the wife slept right through it! (Since she didn't adjust it; might be why). Just added a couple more splits before bed, and it looked like the pictures.
Just some clean up and odds and ends around the house, and we're ready!

 

Need to get off my butt and feed the dogs, will need to put them back up as its still too cold out for them.

 

LOL. Our neighbor got Rex a "Doggie Advent Calendar" of treats. He got his last one this morning, and it was apparently special. He took it outside and managed to bury it somewhere!

 

Saving it for a spring day…. Oh wait that is just a few days away.
