cold

Bracing for -20℃ temperatures tonight. The temperature is dropping pretty rapidly now.

It got a little chilly up here overnight.

Finally had a pipe freeze. We have an unfinished basement that usually stays above 40℉, plus I monitor it, so I wasn't concerned. However, it looks like there are localized areas of the basement that get colder than the spot I'm monitoring, and last night it got down to -10℉ outside. Apparently that was enough. The problem was localized to one spot right at the pressure tank, and hitting it with a space heater for 10 minutes was enough to clear it. Nothing's damaged as far as I can see. Got lucky.

I guess I'll be doing some insulating. This is the longest, coldest cold snap I've experienced here and the bright side of it is that it's alerted me to a trouble spot as well as the limits of our current systems!

I'm still not over my cold, but at least that's given me some time to draw.

Something colder than my most of my recent drawings: a devil-lady of the icy peaks, rather than of the infernal depths. Perched up on the mountainside, she awaits her next victim... or is just waiting for a few friends to meet up with for a night on the (alpine) town. I don't know, I just draw them.
