It happens every year! A strong cold front comes sweeping into the area from the arctic and streams across the warmer waters of Lake Superior.
The weather phenomenon makes for a beautiful scene and is well worth the numb fingers.
Enjoy the cold!

January Sea Smoke!

James R Barker (Jan 1, 2013)

The James R Barker passes under the Duluth Aerial Lift Bridge at 7:30 this morning and into the icy "Sea Smoke" rising off Lake Superior.  An appropriate scene for January shipping in Duluth.
