Heating Season

In 2012, we started our first fire on October 12th. It was a cold, wet day—the start of our last heating season. This year, while I was in Oregon, VSO pulled the trigger on September 26th—starting this heating season two weeks early. She is, admittedly, cold blooded, and is typically wearing a sweater while I'm sweating through my T-shirt, but there was some justification for her early start. Southern Utah saw a three day run of overnight temps in the high 20s/low 30s. The afternoons have been warm and sunny, but it takes a while for the sun to do its work. As a result, the morning temperatures in the house are generally in the 50s. While that sounds adequate to me, I can understand that not everyone has Swedish blood.
