    Is your shores out the back covered in snow dirt. Its a vacuum which commonly occurs when there is a big drop from upstairs and the pipe is not vented. Give it a couple of days and see if it stableises.

    Do not leave the bowl empty as smells will come back up

    Also common occurance if you have your own septic tank and it's full.
