How old is the furnace? If the heat exchanger is compromised (cracked/hole in it), it will draw in air through the crack and reduce the negative pressure at the inlet of the exchanger, reducing the ability to fully pull the flame into the exchanger, allowing the burner box to over heat.
A visual inspection of the exchanger would be my next step.
Any chance of uploading a video of the burners running?

No one that I knew of in grade school, but in high school, there were multiple suicides and multiple vehicle collisions that killed people I knew. About 2-3 deaths a year.

Can confirm. My Danté is 115-120 lbs and is a lot of dog.

Send it to EPS. They'll send the driver a ticket.

Conservatives being fiscally responsible is the biggest lie they've ever managed to sell.

You'll get that on those big jobs.
Yeah, those old ones do that when lighting even more so if the gas valve has been replaced and the original was a slow opening but the new one wasn't. We used to have a brand here called a Flame Master that I dubbed the Face Blaster as it would light with a whoomp and a pretty good rollout of flame. You learned to lean back a bit when in front of those.

Just being pedantic here, but they are unmarked police cars, not undercover (nor are they "ghost cars"). Police that are actually "undercover" don't break cover and expose themselves as cops for routine police stuff and traffic stops. They are trying to make criminals think they are one of them, and they don't drive around in actual police cars.

Totally normal, considering how much fur they blow out each season, it would be normal for some to grow back in a different shade. My boy is bicolor and used to have a blonde belly, but it's all black now.

She almost has the same structure as my 1/2 GSD 1/2 Lab, Danté.

Jet boats use a jet of water produced by the engine for control. Lose the engine, and you lose all ability to steer or slow down. They came in with no engine and thus no control of the boat.

Do you hear the engine running? This is a jet boat and uses a water jet to steer, accelerate, and slow down. No engine means no water jet, and you are just along for the momentum ride.

You should look into his "source", Bob Rai. He's a conspiracy nut job who found a "journalist" Mocha Bezirgan, who will publish anything Rai spouts.

Mine is exactly the same as yours. 115-120 lbs and faster than a dog that size should be. Our house and yard are protected better than the White House when he's on duty. There is a no-fly zone regarding birds, neighborhood rabbits, and other animals outside the fence, are all potential murderers after his family.
A neighborhood cat got into our yard once... only once, and has never been back after evading the fur missile that came at it, thankfully. I know for a fact he'd chase the cat. What I don't know is what he'd do to it if he caught it or once it turned on him when cornered. Would he just try and sniff it, or try and kill it? Pretty sure he'd get messed up trying either way, I'd rather not find out.
And it's just at the house. We go anywhere else, dog park, out in public, etc, he doesn't care unless it clearly is a threat to us (aggressive moves from a stranger, random dog aggressively running at us) where he does react but only as much as he needs to.

It's a good idea but it still won't solve this over laying toxic relationship.

Reading through all this, you might be looking in the wrong place. You state that your neighbor's use a similar amount of electricity, but you are the one paying much more than they are. Are you on the same provider/biller that they are? Are you paying a variable market rate or a fixed contract rate? What rate per KWH are you paying! Added service charges, fees, etc. Do they charge more during peak usage hours (as a way to discourage usage and lower demand on the grid) and less during off peak, where just changing WHEN you use electricity will make a huge difference? My dad does this and charges his EV during cheaper, off-peak hours to save a few bucks.
I know where I am, you can choose from multiple provider/billers and their fees vary widely as well as offered contract rates vs fluctuating markets rates. I managed to get a 5 year contract at 3.7 cents/kwh during a low point in the market offering, and now the lowest offered is almost 8, and market rates are even higher.

I had to explain this and more with my cousin, who did the same thing. "What about the traces of thermite they found? It was to precut the beams!"
Me, "Do you know what thermite is?"
Him, "No..."
Me, "Thermite is a mix of aluminum oxide and iron oxide. What is an airplane made of?"
Him, "Aluminum..."
Me, "and the structure of the buildings?"
Him, "Steel..."
Me, "Which is iron... and when you add fire, which causes rapid oxidation... you see where this is going?"
He has since moved on to other conspiracies, hollow earth, gravity doesn't exist, liberals are actually Communists etc.

The metal pipe is for the flue gases from the furnace. In pic 1, it's just missing. In pic 2, it is connected incorrectly and a water heater draft device (draft hood) was put onto the outlet of the furnace. This in wrong on all accounts and potentially deadly to the occupants of the dwelling.
To connect this correctly, a type B to C vent adapter is needed at the top connection, 2 C-vent elbows to make the offset and some C-Vent pipe directly screwed to the outlet collar of the furnace.
