<p>Guys, I'm confused. I've read about track expansion during hot weather or high humidity where the track expands and buckles. We have had some really wet and cold weather the last few days here in northern Virginia. I went to the basement today and there was a section of straight track buckled up about an inch or so. The buckled section even pulled out the track nails. I thought it was supposed to be the other way around....heat makes buckle...cold makes shrinking...whats up?</p><p>Thanks,</p><p>John</p>
