Several stunning images captured by a Minnesota photographer illustrate just how cold it is at Lake Superior.
The pictures taken by Andrew Krueger showed large sheets of ice piled up along the shore as temperatures remained below freezing this week.
Scientists from the Great Lakes Environmental Research Laboratory said ice coverage was at its highest percentage in 35 years, according to USA Today.
Persistent cold temperatures in the Midwest this winter have almost completely frozen over many of the Great Lakes, the lab reportedly said in a press release.

Chunkcs and chunks of global warming. :)
So glad I don’t live up north! >.<
Climate change emergency ping. :)
You get used to it.
Once every 35 years? Oh my! /s
Joe Bastardi is saying the ice cover is greater than ever recorded.
Well obviously the polar vortex caused by global warming caused this. You deniers need to just leave the planet. Cuz...yea see? If you stopped polluting then there would be no global warming and so there would be no ice on the shores and freezing. Cuz...Squirell!
Pretty obvious.
I was up on the North Shore at the end of January and it was wide open then. But it was steaming like a young man’s dreams.
Wow!
That pic shows we are living in an awesome time.
.
Those are some great pictures.
Does Algore have a lake front mansion in Duluth?
That can not be ice, mac daddy we are in danger of gobal warming and we are all going to roast to death and mac daddy would not lie.
God has a wicked sense of humor. Ever notice everywhere Gore travels, temps often drop dramatically?
Almost makes me wish he’d visit us in AZ around August. But I’d rather deal with the 130 temps. Less miserable.
And the Kool-Aid drinkers up here are still blaming it on global warming.
Just got out of a teacher traing class. Not only is it now just climate change, but it is also “ocean acidification”. The nations children are going to be submerged in this one.
“Chunkcs and chunks of global warming.”
AGW makes me want to spew chunks too!
Meanwhile, the human societies of Earth are coming apart at the seams and John F’n Kerry’s order to State Department envoys is to stress globull warming alarm in the countries they are assigned to...
It would be funny if it was not so pathetic.
Looks like the ice age.
