If it always shuts down during the night it could be an air adjustment, during the nighttime the humidity and temperature both drop making the air denser with oxygen and "can" cause the initial light off to be so lean that the flame does not fully ignite. If there is an air adjustment move it (slightly) to a smaller number reducing the amount of combustion air which richens the mixture of oxygen and hydrocarbons (fuel). A rich mix will light reliably, too rich and you will make soot during burner operation so if the trick works more is not better, don't soot up your furnace or vent pipe by going too far.

If the pilot light is the thermocouple type the thermocouple is bad and will need replaced. It's the little tube the flame/pilot keeps hot in order that the gas valve will open when the thermostat tells the gas valve to open and the large burner ignites. Hope this helps, Let me know, Thanks Sea Breeze

Make sure a back draft in the flue is not happening. Wind can blow it out until the flue heats up. The flame sensor may not be close enough to the burner flame. It may be weak and need to be replaced or if its an optical one it may be dirty and not see the flame very well. Its not wasting much gas but it puts extra wear and tear on the gas controls, is noisy, and, as you said, blows cold drafty air. A gas control system that has issues of any kind is not real safe. It needs to get fixed.

it is normal for a breaker that is run right on the edge (50 amp and your furnance to use 45) to get weak after a while . the first thing you should do is change the breaker with the same type and amp rateing . it should take care if it
