That is correct.
The locks at Sault St. Marie also close down because the St. Mary’s River freezes over. Coast Guard ice breakers try to keep it open for part of the winter. I have worked on lake freighters, actually called ore boats, on what is called the winter run. Usually hauling coal or iron ore between ports on Lake Michigan and Lakes Huron and Erie. But as noted sometime Erie freezes over.

I’m not sure about that. The local weather soothsayer said that even though Lake Erie is frozen over, we can still get snow from Lake Huron.
We’re getting a squall right now.
To: Vigilanteman
The locks at Sault Ste. Marie are allowed to free over, usually after the last downbound boat passes through on January 14th or 15th. The reopening is the last week in March.
This is the passage from lake Superior to Lake Huron.

What does this say about the ice in the rest of the Great Lakes?

global warming is the all powerful god. If it wants earth to be cold, it will make it cold. If it wants it to be hot, it will be hot. Its all due to a wasteful and evil mankind
AGW is a new pagan religious cult.

It also means it will get colder. No open water to warm the surface air temps...

Bill Nye the Lie: Yes, the water is cold because througout winter warm presents as cold due to the transmigrational tendencies of the earth acting like a heat pump sucking the heat and exhaling the cold.
Got it?

And anthropogenic climate change means that while it used to be cold in winter and hot in summer NOW it means that it is hot in summer and cold in winter. See how that changed?

In about 4 months, there will be dozens of folks on that pier jigging for lake-trout.
