Come winter, with the temps even lower, the house can
cool off to the 50s when the furnace is turned off overnight...

In my town a house can cool down to -40 overnight! When its really
cold out if my furnace is out more than 90 minutes due to a power
outage my water pipes will freeze. If I'm lucky they don't burst and
flood when the heat comes back on. It's currently -16 as I type this.

It definitely is colder where you are.... last night it got to -4C here,
and it's considered a cold snap, especially for this time of year... We
rarely get much below 0F (that's about what you've got now?) even in the coldest part of the winter... The house holds heat pretty well, so it
has to be quite cold for it to cool off much...

... Sir, am I to understand that you people sell dead, fried birds here?
