Worried Elves and Winter Weather
As we were forewarned last week by the Weather Department at North Pole Flight Command a heavy winter storm has hit the North Pole with snow and high winds, creating blizzard conditions.

The storm has made the active arrival of sleighs at the North Pole Sleigh Port something of a treacherous venture.
Elves from around the world returning to the North Pole for Thanksgiving report rough landings that some deem “too exciting”.
Gratefully, all arriving during the storm so far have done so safely.
“A storm of this magnitude is not unusual for late November,” said head weather elf, Elf Seymour Snow. “While it sounds bad and maybe is too exciting for some elves we have dealt with this kind of storm before and it we could not land sleighs safely we wouldn’t even try it.”
With Thanksgiving just two days away there is a growing anticipation for Operation Merry Christmas at the North Pole and some elves are feeling a bit worried about Santa’s departure now in less than a month.
For more information about Thanksgiving festivities and what Santa is advising elves and believers a like to do at this time, please listen to the North Pole Radio News report in the player above.

Thank you, Elf Harold, and Elves Frank and Crash! I feel a little relieved to hear that the elves so far have returned to the North Pole safely. I pray for all other elves and the test flight pilots and the reindeer also can arrive there safely. I agree with Elf Crash! I think Santa makes always fun with his work. So please enjoy Thanksgiving with gobbling! I wish the elves merry make the weather could be calm down! Have a laughing gobbling day and Merry Christmas! 💝🎅😆🎶
