Icy Lakes in June?

Yep, we are nearly through the first week of June and there is still some ice over Lake Superior. This has been the first time we have recorded ice being present over the lakes this late in the year. Winter definitely lasted a bit too long for our friends in the northern United States.

 

 

Here is a picture from the NWS office in Marquette, Michigan from earlier in the week showing the last of the ice cover holding on:
