Razors Edge ★ Posted February 26, 2019 Share #1 Posted February 26, 2019 ...so I'm hoping @Prophet Zacharia decided he was gonna sit out Winter in PA and stay cozy in paradise Lake Erie and Lake Ontario are NUTS! The official start of spring may just be a few weeks away, but residents along Lake Erie wouldn’t know it. After all, they just experienced an extremely rare weather phenomenon that is so wild it doesn’t even sound real: an ice tsunami. According to Fox News, the Lake Erie region experienced high winds on Sunday and Monday that caused not only power outages and travel delays, but also caused a wall of ice to push onshore along the lake. These photos show the massive amount of ice that was pushed onto land in just 15 minutes. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sheep_herder ★ Posted February 26, 2019 Share #6 Posted February 26, 2019 What about those blocks of ice that were brought ashore near the observers? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Probably brought home and used as furniture? Could cobble together a nice set of benches and tables for around the pool (aka skating rink).

12string Posted February 26, 2019 Share #8 Posted February 26, 2019 We did a ride in Vermont a few years back. On the drive up, noticed Lake Champlain looked low, there was shoreline we had never seen. Then riding South Hero, flooding everywhere. They had a number of days of high wind from south to North, it pushed all of the water to the North. The winds had been gone for a couple days, it was taking that long for the lake to slosh back Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There was a small bay off rt 2 in South Hero that you could use to tell which way the wind was blowing by how much water was in the bay. Might be the same place.
