Do we have reason to expect otherwise?
I know of trees exploding in extreme cold, but that doesn't seem to be the case.

This was a comment directed at the US White House, whence (a couple of weeks ago) proceeded a strange comment about how 'in Austria, they have exploding trees'. We've given up trying to follow the reasoning from over there.
