That strip mall has been there as long as I can remember.  Looks to have metal studs and probably had an updated facade at some point, but It was standing at least in the late 80s.

Guess it was just the right wind at the right time.

Really good that no one was in or getting in or out of that car when it came down!

Went on a 2mi hike.  WeatherBug says -7F with wind-chill of -34F but I'm not sure I buy it's that cold.  Out of the wind you really don't feel cold at all.  But hiking into the wind on the ridgetop I could see getting frostbite relatively quickly without protection for your face.  Further down the mountain 200-300 vertical feet there's hardly any wind so it isn't bad.  I gotta cut some more wood for the stove and cook up some sausage now.

Nice setup!

Looks like fun.  My border collie would be going nuts fetching sticks there!

I forgot to do some weather stripping on my windows, and my office window (I WFH) was leaking cold air inside. Tried to find weather stripping products, but they were all out of stock or not available today.

So I used duct tape as weather stripping. It's working. So far...

Duct tape will fix just about anything in a pinch! ;)

Unreal lake effect coming off Erie right now with lake shore flooding. What a scene. My buddy just sent me a video from his house in Cheektowaga NY. Can’t see at all out his windows. 3” per hour rates with winds near 50mph.

2-3 feet of snow PLUS this bitter cold and wind is as wintry as it gets.
