If you haven't turned on the news in a while, you may want to flip it on to check the weather forecast. An intense blast of cold weather that the experts call a "bomb cyclone" is set to hit the US this weekend and early next week.
This is a nationwide hit, with just about every state across the lower 48 experiencing some weather warning or advisory. It's the first arctic outbreak of the winter, and temperatures are expected to drop significantly below normal into what they call "dangerously cold" levels.
Before it sets in, it's important to take precautions and ensure you have a reliable heat source and an emergency plan in place. One cost-effective solution to stay warm during this wintery blast is to invest in a space heater, and right now, a ton of them are on sale at multiple retailers.
Here are some of the best deals on space heaters to help you stay warm without breaking the bank:
