I hadn't even had a chance to check but I'm sure it was nice and toasty in my yard under a foot of snow even when it was around 0°F at night. Normally, though, we don't have the luxury of that much snow all winter.

Unfortunately my project is on hiatus since we are in the process of buying a home and moving very soon. Hopefully I will be back at it this summer. On the upside the new house has retrofoam insulation and a 90+ furnace. It has an attached garage but will still need to be heated to work in the winter comfortably. I hope to be back at it in earnest this summer.
