⚠️ EXTREME COLD CAN DO WEIRD THINGS ⚠️
As temperatures crash well below zero, you may hear loud bangs, cracks, or booms outside.
No, it’s not transformers blowing or anything exploding.
👉 It can actually be trees splitting.
When extreme cold hits fast, the moisture and sap inside a tree can freeze and expand. That rapid expansion can cause the trunk or large limbs to crack suddenly, sometimes loud enough to sound like a gunshot.
📍 Most likely during: • Rapid temperature drops
• Subzero air settling in
• Calm, bitterly cold nights
🌲 Important to know: • This is uncommon, but very possible in extreme cold
• Healthy and weakened trees can both be affected
• Large cracks or falling limbs can be dangerous
🚗 Safety tips: • Avoid parking under big trees during deep cold
• Be alert when walking outdoors
• If you hear loud cracking sounds, it may not be what you think
Winter isn’t just cold.
It’s powerful.
Stay aware. Stay safe. ❄️🌬️
