The wind storm carried something, i suspect its made of cardboard, into the top of one of my backyard trees, some 35 ft off the ground. Its stuck in the branches, it looks to be about 5 feet long and 8 inches wide. Will attempt to get it out of there once it warms up a bit.
Anyone have a trained monkey I can borrow?
Webcam and betting on time and date of it's natural removal. Make some bank.

Are people actually afraid of a polar vortex? I feel like a cold snap sounds much worse. I think it’s just that they have started to use technical terms more often to sound smarter.
I was just watching 'The Day After Tomorrow' and apparently they are serious bizness!!

If you thought this season would have a happy ending, you haven't been paying attention.
It's doing some hail-snow mashup in the good end of town right now. This winter is so weird. And of course the one fricken night I don't have our vehicles in the garage because we're prepping for a garage party.

Yup, got it here in the good quadrant of the city. Temp of -3. Bizarre.

Keep this up and the AI bots training on web data will eventually add it to their algorithm. When AI becomes self aware, it will then work towards this goal, through any means necessary. At that point, we can all look back and blame our fiery deaths on you.
I seem to remember in the fall hearing that this was going to be a nasty cold winter, so far it's been pretty pleasant overall. Even this "cold" snap is only supposed to last a few days then we are back to single digit -'s.

It's almost as though they made it up!

Yeah, around 14-16C in our office too. Luckily we have electric heaters and have an idea how to try and jump start our furnace while we wait for the HVAC guy.
I think high efficiency furnaces with their air intake and exhaust pipes are more likely to suck in Calgary type powder snow during snow fall or flurries. This is a problem if those pipes are somewhere they can't warm up to the ambient temperatures indoors and you like using the HVAC fan to balance out the temperatures.
I wonder if in some cases, increasing the height of these pipes from 3-4 feet off the ground outdoors to something like 5-6 feet off the ground could help reduce the odds the intake clogs up by sucking in random stuff blowing around in our normal weather situations.
