I guess hitting the atmosphere at 45,000 mph has that effect? 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you're doing a lot of windows, there's nothing better and faster than a squeegee made for glass cleaning. It'll have a sponge/cleaner on one side and the rubber squeegee on the other. Mix up a pail of glass cleaner and you'll be done in no time. 1 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Are we no better at predicting such events than the dinosaurs? I gues their meteor was bigger than this one. My wife and I were hearing some very odd thumping sounds late at night, like someone dropped a bag of concrete on our roof. I thought something broke under a snow load, but when I searched for damage, I didn't find any. She found out they are called frost quakes....... Experts call the noises thermal expansion and contraction. That means the components in your home are shrinking and expanding with extreme temperature changes, especially with the sub-zero temperatures so many of us have been experiencing recently. "There's motion because the outside temperature is different from the temperature inside of your house, so these differentials could cause movement in a different direction and could create that noise," Wentworth Institute of Technology professor Garrick Goldenberg said. And when materials are tightly secured with nails or fasteners, and the pressure becomes too great, the energy may be released suddenly and cause a loud noise. And as unsettling and nerve-wracking as they sound, it's not usually a sign of danger. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Have something similar happen here but not from frost and on a smaller scale. Usually it happens in the summer, when it's hot and a cloud or rain passes over, or the opposite, you can hear the metal roof make slight popping noises from the metal expanding and contracting. Sounds what you have going on is a little more extreme, as long as there is no damage. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
