I turned my furnace on, yesterday. Each year, I try to wait until November 1, but that doesn’t usually happen. However, I think this year is the earliest it’s ever been turned on.
The deciding factor was when I woke up Saturday morning and the temperature in the house was 60 degrees. Though tempted to turn the furnace on then, I held off thinking the house would warm up later in the day. A few hours later, I checked the thermostat and found it was only 61 degrees. The furnace was turned on minutes later.
Global warming??? Never in Erie!
We are trying hard to not turn the heat on until November, too. It's been tough this year. I guess we could always leave our typically 63 degree house and visit my in-law's 85 degree house. ;o)
