Cold enough

[Silver]

Weather station in the house this morning, -40.9. It dropped a little more as the sun came up.



But at least the water was working as intended:



Replacements happy to get their grain:


Cows make quite a fog in the valleys in this weather:

At that temp C and F are almost the same. Too darn cold for me. 68F here today.

It's a dry cold.

We have a high of 32F today with blowing snow. It's way to cold for my liking.

We have been in the upper 80s. My dad just barbecued chicken and ribs for xmas in shorts.

Our high was somewhere around 37 degrees; I'm not sure what it is with the wind chill. My solar system for the stock tank went down last week, I thought I had it fixed last Wednesday, but no, the next morning it did not some come on. I won't have any replacement parts until after the first, so I will be swapping out batteries everyday until then. At least I can keep the stock tank full. So my solar system will be getting a upgrade once those parts come; hopefully I bought a better quality charge controller this time.

29f and 5 rare inches of snow here today, supposed to get colder.

It was 21 here this morning. Yesterday afternoon, this morning, and again this afternoon it snowed while I was feeding but quit once I went into the house. We only have maybe 2 inches of snow here at the house. It warmed up a couple days ago and melted what we had down here. But if you went up top I am sure there is a couple feet. It is supposed to be 9 in the morning. And the ten day forecast doesn't have a single above freezing temperature showing. The calves drink out of the river but at those temperatures I will have to keep an eye on it .

We just had sirloin off of the charcoal!
Yep, no pics, but I've been in shorts for 2 or 3 days now. Love it!

Now if we can just get a drop or two of moisture all will be grand.

It was upper 40s today. Snow coming Tue. We have set several day time high records the last two wks. Maybe Jan will feel like winter.

Silver, I see it is 14.2C in the house, what sort of temp do you get it up to during those conditions?

Time to bring all those lefty, anti oil and gas folks into your region, dress them in short pants and a T-shirt, kick them outside and ask them how they want to stay warm!
Best to all,

Been running the AC here for days…

It is 9 this morning. No new snow. It is waiting until I go out to feed to start snowing again.

My house isn't easy to heat when it's really cold outside. Yesterday the sun was shining and it got up to about 17C in the house. I have a pellet stove upstairs and a couple of electric baseboard heaters. In the basement I have a 35,000 btu wall heater I had installed this winter, as well as a wood heater. I might light the wood heater today as the sun isn't expected to shine lol.
