Good evening! Temps are going down to the low 40's tonight. Many may be running the heaters for the first time of the season. If you plan to run your heat, turn it on before you go to bed, give it that first cycle. You likely will smell a burning smell for the first few minutes (dust from summer hiatus burning off the elements). That way you don't have a scare tonight or in the morning waking up to the first lighting of the heater. If you use portable heaters, remember to keep adequate space. And NEVER go to sleep with kerosene heaters burning!!! Be safe!!
