I turned on my heater last night. Last night low was 37F and it's still early Oct! A long, cold winter ahead...

I use the one in the car in the morning and late at night. Not at home though.

if it were 37F at night, personally, i would just get more blankets before turning on the heater.

Heck no. We're still using our AC. We turned it off this afternoon but if it gets about 5 degrees warmer tomorrow, it'll be back on.

Supposed to rain Friday night here though. :)

I probably should do that to save some money.

I never use the heater, don't even have one; it never gets colder than mid to upper 60s here.

Been using the heater for the past week. Its been in the low 30s at night in Detroit.

It seems like every 2 years we have a bad winter in Detroit. 2001s and last years winter was not bad. 2000 and 2002 winters were bad. 2004 looks like it might be a bad winter too.

I've only had two fires in the woodstove, a couple weeks ago. Warmed back up so haven't had any lately, but it'll be cold enough for a daily fire before the end of the month.

Do you have additional heaters besides the fire or that's it?
