Every year for the last 3 years, the pilot light in the oven has gone out. Two years it went out on Thanksgiving morning (the first year it added about 1.5 hours on the turkey since I didn't know it went out). This year it went out a day early - just last night. It never goes out any other time of the year.
The pilot light feeding the two sides of the stove are still lit
- so it wasn't a gas service interruption. The first year this happened the water heater pilot light also went out.
Somebody said it might be the wind, but the range doesn't vent to the outside. It did get kinda cold last night, but it's done that a couple times this month already. Not that that would have any effect on the lines/pilots.
Anybody want to take a stab at explaining why this happens every year around this time?
