For some reason the local weather didn't copy but it's 1* with a wind chill of -29. Normally they have wind speed on here but anyhow we have a fairly steady wind with gusts that form little snow tornadoes. In other words it's cold.

Got it to work, that high temp was earlier. Only one way to go now.

It's about time you get a taste of some -25 windchills.

It is a balmy 32 degrees here with 7 mph winds. Supposed to drop to almost 0F later tonight.

There is an airport across the street from me so I get accurate weather, 52* and 11 SSE winds. I had 2 windows open all day as I painted the bathroom

...and the vigilant keeps purring!

We had a high today around noon of 56°, with a peak gust of 29 mph in the sheltered valley here.

Right now, this is what we've got ...

The peak on the graph was when I set the house T-stats to 75°, so I could clean the boiler without everything cooling down too much.

Here's the MAC software I have to link to my Davis weather station.

High this morning of 58, reading 32 right now.

Expected to hit 1 tonight, with some strong winds.

This will be the second good test of the LL 110 this year, so far so good.

I have to go outside and look at the Weather Rock first.

I have a feeling that after a coule of trips OUTSIDE to the weather rock tonight,....you'll be ready for, at least, wireless thermometer recommendations

don't pee on any flag poles tonight,.....it will turn out badly.

Armed with a blow torch no doubt!

Chris, what about heat tape and pipe insulation?

Kinda... Originally, this house was built on 14" tall brick piers, about 8 ft apart. Over the past 20 years, someone decided to 'wrap' the outside perimeter of the house with 4" thick concrete block. Trying to make it a little warmer under there, I guess.
Well, they never completed the job. And what block they did install, is falling back out because they never installed a footing under that block 'wall'.

Most pipes just lay on the ground under there. I have heat-taped and insulated the pipes I can get to, But the well pressure tank is under there too, on its side, and I cannot get to it without removing one of the Block walls
