Unbelieveable! Ice coming off Lake Mille Lacs

[05venturer]

This is the ice coming off a lake a few hours NW of me. Been on the news all day.

Ice Out

This is really wild!

Wild video.

I recognize the woman making the video.

She's the Blonde that went looking for Jason with a flashlight, right? :D
I hope they are alright.

 

[dhizzy]

Wow man, that is remarkable!

 

[kashmir]

Amazing. Does anyone know if it stopped? How much damage was sustained?

 

[crazypipe]

Amazing never seen anything like it before . 8O

 

[jndyer]

Nature is an amazing/scary thing.

 

[fnord]

Amazing video, Venturer! And thank you for sharing it.
It was like watching a train wreck developing and knowing there wasn't a damned thing you could do to stop it.

[bigboi]

Wow, that was amazing. I hope not to much damaged was reaped by the onslaught of ice

 

[paintedklown]

Woah...I have never seen, nor heard of any such thing happening before. It's cool/scary all at the same time. :?
Nature, your scary! 8O
This does look like a great (or horrible, depending on how you look at it) plot for a Stephen King movie, though.

That is CRAZY. Mother nature just reminding everyone who is in charge.

They are saying it sounds like a combination of a train and breaking glass as it moves up.

Some places it piled up 30 feet high, so far I don't think any injuries and not as much damage as I would have thought. The lake was completely iced over yesterday morning and then strong NW winds started pushing. Very Amazing

Growing up near lake Erie I do recall that sound every spring when the ice started melting. It sounds like someone breaking a thousand tractor trailer loads of glass continuously for a week. It's a cool sound actually to just zone out on at night while smoking.

 

[mrenglish]

Wow. Just another good reason to not live on a lake...

 

[redbeard]

insane

The title would be "The Creeping"........

 

[rayje589]

That's pretty crazy.

 

[brian64]

Wow! Incredible. (Must be global warming.)

 

[oklansas]

Well, geologically speaking, we are in a fairly cold period for the average temperature of the Earth over its lifespan. That aside, the warmer average temp bring with it sea levels 30 to 60 ft. higher than they are currently!
30 more feet and bye-bye where I live or I will need to buy a house boat :D

 

[lonestar]

Thats insane. The lake is attacking them !
