HOUGHTON, MICH. -- Record-breaking cold has threatened to freeze massive Lake Superior's surface for the first time in more than two decades.
"The lake is fairly well covered," said Craig Evanego, an ice forecaster with the National Ice Center in Washington, D.C. "It's the thickest its been in years."
Lake Superior last froze completely in 1979, and this year's ice cover is the most since 1996-97, lake watchers said.
Ice currently covers more than 90 percent of the the largest of the Great Lakes, Evanego said. In some areas, the covering is a scant inch or so, but vast portions of the lake have 12 to 28 inches of ice, according to the National Ice Center.
Lakes Huron and Erie are ice-covered, the center reported. Northern Lake Michigan is frozen, but the mid-to lower section is open, other than coastal areas, the center reported.
