An Ice Wave from the floor of Lake Huron near Mackinaw Island

Amazing pictures up around Mackinaw Island!!!
Michigan has had the coldest winter in decades.
Water expands to freeze, and at Mackinaw City the water in Lake Huron
below the surface ice was supercooled. It expanded to breakthrough the
surface ice and froze into this incredible wave.

This wave phenomena occurs in Antarctica, but in Michigan? Yes, it's
been quite a winter!

I'm not being mean at all....but....
Looks super photoshopped:hmm: My hubby thinks it's photoshopped too. If it is real then what an amazingly beautiful site.
 
OK now that makes sense. It is really pretty and quite impressive.
 
The frozen ice at Lake Michigan is now gone.

No one really swims in Lake Michigan this time of year. Especially after the winter it had, the water is freaking cold. Wait until mid June at least. The beaches, however, will be filled.
