If you haven't had fun in the snow yet.... http://enews.earthlink.net/article/top?guid=20140205/d202e774-5c56-48b1-a3c0-d674348956e0

I've heard about these. They happened a lot apparently during the big artic air drop last month. I could do without that kind of excitement.

We were getting a lot of these frost quakes in our area during the arctic vortex cold we had a few weeks back. I think there was about one reported on the news every couple of nights. Usually it happened at night (that is when the temps got to their coldest) when everyone was asleep and the "boom" would wake people up afraid their house was falling down around them. Luckily I slept through most of them.

We had a nice collection of 'snow rollers,' forming in pretty much any open place. Now they are all gone, melted. I kinda miss them. http://www.dispatch.com//content/stories/local/2014/01/27/snow-rollers.html

Frost quakes and snow tumbleweeds.....anything else to add?

Eeeek! Don't even want to read this! With all the earthquakes we have in Greece -- there is now a series of big ones on the island of Kefallonia -- I freak out even at the word "quake"!

Calm down, DT! Frost quakes aren't as bad as earthquakes! Read it and see.

By the way, EW, great avatar and signature!

Thanks, DT!
