Agreed with what everyone else said, plastic window insulation and space heaters are your best friend. Although I will say, make sure you also check that you aren't covering the heating vents in your room, as that can make a big difference. I also had a similar problem to yours, and one day discovered that the windows in my room actually fell open a few inches at the top if I didn't tape them shut. Hopefully not the case for you, but something to check for.

She did not, essentially we were told to figure our shit out ourselves. The Red Cross gave us a bit of money, bless them, but it only would have been for a few days. The lease doesn't say much about fire, only that the landlord has the right to terminate the lease in the event of a fire. She terminated it a few days after the fire- around June 20th.

She mentioned she would work with the insurance to try to get us that money back, but so far it seems like it hasn't been going anywhere. I understand her concern with the property being burned but I was also not having a lovely time over the summer with no permanent living situation
