I want to brew today.
 
Probably should not fire up the Bayou burner in the attached garage.

I'm use to it. It is suppose to get up around 40. better than -40 a week ago.

If the door is open, you'll be ok regarding CO. As for the fire risk, have an extinguisher handy and you'll be fine. Its no more or less dangerous than using a typical propane grill right next to your house. The reason all those turkey fry fires happen is because they're using 7 gallons of oil! God, I love those videos!

But it looks like you're set in the driveway. I have access to a big industrial gas stove at my church that I'm able to use in bad weather - heats almost as fast as my big outdoor propane burner. I'm very fortunate.
 
Our annual snowfall is about 36 inches. We are already past that with 3 months of winter left. I think the whole world is getting above average snowfall. It's just mother nature proving that she knows how to correct global warming without any help.

Today will be an 80 degree tempurature difference from last Saturday. The fence in my back yard is 6 foot. The cross peice above the snow is 3.

We normally get a couple of inches every few years. last time we got more than 4" in a session was early 80s. Norm min temp is around -5°C.

This Country is not set for snow so 2" and -5 can close the country down.
This was so bad the Government took over the salt mines and rationed grit.
No one has snow chains. All the schools close. Hospitals tuen away patients and cancel operations ambulances stay off the road.

Thats hard core. Hopefully, you got pleny o pints.
 
Because we don't normally get it the Government and companies have decided not to pay for the kit to cope with it.
I'd hate to see what happens if we get stuff like you that lasts more than a week or so.

Yes I have about 50 pint of HB left.
 
This was from December when we got around 20" in one day. The last of it will melt today from the rain.

It snows like that about once every 3-5 years when a Nor' Easter comes up the coast. When that happens here people just buy bread and toilet paper. I never really understood how that works. When it snows do people just each sandwiches and poop a lot?
 
We got a good amount so far and hopefully we will get more soon. I don't mean hopefully. I mean to say whatever is the word for expecting, but without the hope. I mean I like the additional moisture that it adds to our lakes and streams, but dislike the snowblowing and shoveling.

Aw screw it. I got 4x4s! Bring it on!

I don't mind the snow. I hate driving with all of the foreigners that have no idea.
