Great lakes ice coverage remains well below average Here s how that could affect the weather

Warm weather has resulted in record-low ice levels across the Great Lakes this winter, which could lead to increased lake-effect snow and flooding concerns for cities and towns along the shorelines. The warmer weather in the region resulted in dwindling ice starting in January, with several cities reporting their warmest start to the year on record, according to NOAA Regional Climate Centers. Ice coverage was below the historical average across the Great Lakes as the calendar turned to February,
