The front is actually       mostly facing South though so the cold North winds hit the back       of the place with only 2 small windows and there are some tall       trees 60 ft or so behind me which maybe breaks it up a bit.              It seems to be getting warmer these days. There are still a few       cold nights shown in the long range, like Tuesday and Thursday       night this week, but it's easier to heat the place most days and       there should be a bigger change over the next couple of weeks most       likely..              I think we are given winter so we appreciate the rest of the       year more..
