Nearly half of the largest and deepest of the Great Lakes is now ice-covered after this latest stint of deep-freeze temperatures.
“Satellites got a great view of ice on western Lake Superior today. The largest and deepest Great Lake is approaching 50% ice covered!” said staff at the Cooperative Institute for Meteorological Satellite Studies (CIMSS) at the University of Wisconsin-Madison.
