Polar Vortex
It sounds like a heavy metal band from Canada, “Hey we’re going to see Polar Vortex tonight, wear your spandex AAAA!”
Well in reality, a polar vortex is a large pocket of extremely cold air situated over the polar region that can occasionally break away and venture south into Canada and the United States. What we end up with, is really cold temps followed by a lot of snow, and then more cold air and even more snow. It‘s a viscous cycle that starts in November and seems to never end.
It never fails, there is always something breaking down that I have to work on in my garage. Last year, my fingers actually froze to the handle on my snow blower while I was working on it.
Not this year, I am buying the TPI HF686TC Unit Heater, also known as:
“THE BULLDOG”
