Well damn, cold isn't the only problem here. The high winds were having fun last night. A tree fell on my apartment.:Q
It's maybe 30ft tall, an evergreen tree of some sort, uprooted. Fortunately it was close to the building, only a few feet, so as of my leaving this morning, it was propped against the enclosed porch/laundry room. My landlord has seen it and says that he'll get "a tree guy" out today to take care of it. There doesn't appear to be much structural damage, surprisingly, though that could change. It's still windy, and the tree has the option of either staying put, falling more, rolling left (right into my new woodworking shop/room), or right, crushing the (useless/condemned) garage as well as my car, if it were still parked in front of the garage.
Maybe I'll post a thread with pictures later tonight once I get back home. I took pictures before leaving, but had no time to get them off my camera before leaving.
