Just made it, too. The cool indoor-outdoor digital thermometer Landlady gave me four or five winters ago said 20o when I came down the ladder, but clicked to 19 a few minutes later. Heavy frost on the ground.
The clouds cleared away just at sunset in that perverse way they have of going along with Uncle Murphy’s joke and gave me the worst of both worlds: Clouds in the daylight preventing a full charge, and clear at night letting it get nice and frigid. Should warm up nicely when the sun rises, though, and I certainly have plenty of wood for the stove which is rumbling along nicely.
