Yes I saw this on the news tonight and wonderd what it could be. I'll be glad to find out whats up. I burned coal all last year and didn't have dust anywhere near that inside or out or even in the garage where the coal bin is located.

Here is my take on it I think it is when Kimmel is bagging all of the Bituminous coal that is being shipped up here from
W.V. When they bag it It has alot more dust and is alot more dirtier then when they bag Anthracite coal and I know
some of the members that burn Bit coal will not agree but you can goto any of the other 30 Plus Anthracite breakers
around here and you will never see any coal dust coming out of the breaker or the bagging plants When drive by Kimmel and they are bagging Anthracite you will not see any dust But when they are bagging Bituminous you sure will Just my 2 cents it is not hard to figure out Oh and for the Member's that are burning Kimmel Anthracite coal Check your bags you might get some Bit coal mixed in and that is Not a Joke I had it happen to myself and I know a few other People it
happen to Read the link below So you know I am Not B.S. ing any one about Kimmel bagging Bit coal read the whole list
P.S. For those Members that can not tell the differents between the two coal by looking at it one will be shiny one will be
dull looking and can be more brownish or grey in color and if that does not help you burn it you will know then lots of
yellow gold flames and smoke
