Sharing this email from my Aunt in Michigan.

“Amazing pictures of an ice wave from the floor of Lake Huron near Mackinaw Island.....]

Michigan has had the coldest winter in decades. Water expands to freeze, and at Macinaw City the water in Lake Huron below the surface ice was supercooled. It expanded to break through the surface ice and froze into this incredible wave.

I've seen pictures of this wave phenomena in Antarctica, but in Michigan? Yes, it's been quite a winter!”

So what is the issue here, that the pictures are not from Mich? Or, are the pictures fake?
