It’s bridge lift for tall masted yachts to enter into the lake, happens every year.. this is why you pay attention to news
It was damn near 100° yesterday and it’s already 92° right now. That metal expanded and hasn’t had time to cool down.
Thermal expansion. The heat from the hot summer temperatures caused the steel of the bridge to expand.
Citizen stop telling me how much the broadcast has been expanded. Just show me the goddamn video
