Wet wood doesn't make enough heat to force it up the flueOk why won’t wet wood smoke go out the chimney??? If that is the issue???

When the door is shut this was happening when it was cold outside alsoWhen it's warm out (above 45 degrees), it will take longer to get going....Is smoke coming out the chimney?
Only when the fire is burning well.….. but when I open the door the smoke should still go outside I’d think?
It is perfectly dry 2x4’s going right nowOnly when the fire is burning well.
Was it colder outside ( compared to right now) over the past month when it ran fine? My stove is harder to light anytime it's over 40 outside. Under 40 and I can light it with 1 match.So I went up again… instead of eyeballing. The chimney is 2’ at most over the highest point within 10’ but WHY would it work for the past month if that were the issue.
I have vacuumed and brushed 80% of that gas path
What if I take a leaf blower into the air intake…. Lol
Is it possible the baffle above the secondary air tubes has shifted, or something is obstructing the exit at the top front side of the combustion chamber?So I went up again… instead of eyeballing.

lol not a tool I think about I lack the equipment but I used it…. And the fire picked up some but smoke comes pouring from unknown locations with the door shutHow about a hair dryer ?
Shifted how?? The big firebrick on top of the tubes is the baffle correct?Is it possible the baffle above the secondary air tubes has shifted, or something is obstructing the exit at the top front side of the combustion chamber?
