I'm sure this gets said a lot of places but man Oklahoma has the worst weather in the world. I had a 30 degree temp swing one day in my grow room this last weekend. We can have 2 record highs, 3 record lows, sunshine, snow, calm, 70mph wind, drought, floods, 9 tornadoes and a series of earthquakes by the time I finish a pot of coffee in the morning.

I have been watching the propaganda with all the flooding down south, the year is young. Last year was way to wet for my garden and I ended up with raised beds. This year is looking to be yet another very wet year, and to that I have 20 gallon fabric pots and raised beds for my outdoor grow.
The buds on the trees are swelling, the flowers are popping, hell I need to mow! I have seen geese going north, everything says spring, 'cept me! History says we get our biggest snow falls in March, and frosts into April. I think it's false spring!
The weather is a roller coaster, mid 70's and mid 10's, warm and wet, cold and dry,,,

Well GreenState when we lived in Vt we’d do about 8-10 cord and had no log splitter... some of that wood was elm and curly as can be. I was only 24 then so splitting was a sweat, but doable. Built a log splitter a few years back out of scrap steel that turns out to be a monster workhorse with an old Honda 8hp and a 7’ I-beam. Added a log lifter to it so now I can roll the big ones up there and pull the handle....it lands in the splitter, onto a table and I just keep pushing it on the back of the pickup or garden cart.
I envy that wood stove... you could adjust your seating position to how cold you are and it’s pretty...except feeding it constantly . My wife was just talking to her family near Troy, Newport and Derby Line...-20 F this morning.
Some old bluegrass song talks a lot how wood warms you several times.....once, when you cut it, another when you buck it up and split it, again when you stack it and finally when you burn it. Proud of you for those efforts!!!

Farmall Since I bust my ass cutting/splitting/stacking and carrying in that 6-7 cord of wood, I like it warm!(lol). Actually I get pretty big temp variations with the woodstove so it must have been cranking when I took the pic. Night time is a different story, I shut down the stove and it is typically about 60 when I wake up. Fall weather for my plants (g).

9 here this morning. My weather sensor chart shows 72 in January as the highest and 12 as the lowest. Really unusual. January thaw may see 50 but not 70’s and there was nothing to thaw, so to speak. Frankly, I’m ok with it
