- Full chase video from February 24th expanding on previously uploaded shorter clips. This video shows a variety of scenes from Crystal Beach and Fort Erie where immense effects from this massive storm system were felt, including winds gusting over 130km/h and a crazy ice shove event!
Thanks. Been trying to explain to my wife why I don’t think a 40 degree night in Los Angeles is ‘freezing cold.’ Just showed her this and said ‘this is where I grew up.’
With wind speeds like these, it was probably colder than -40 below! LOL
The thought of being there is making my bones hurt.
@@scrapcash2421 yeah man
Someone complains how their cold in Las Angeles forever they are labeled a Sissy. 😂
@@lisamariemary This is spring in northern Ohio. Its about 35-40° for ice to be moving on the lake because of the wind. If it was below zero the ice would still be on the lake and solid.
As a Minnesotan, these clips bring back memories. Weather up north is not for the faint hearted, it takes a special kind of person to call it home. Great vid.
I read this with my thickest northern accent I could muster. From Wisconsin, but I’m stuck In Chicago for school right on the lake tho. Chicago is the south as far as I’m concerned. No snow on thanksgiving? Bogus as fuck
yeah man. just a few thousand years ago, it was under 1-2 miles of ice
Well they imported a whole bunch of Somali so-called "refugees," and they don't seem to have any problem living there. They get to commit crime with impunity too, which is a bonus.
Saskatchewan is even colder.
🥶🥶🥶🥶🥶
The strangest part is that it is not even located that far north. The same latitudes in Europe are much milder.
Amazing Vid. People who have never lived in the upper 48 can't imagine this. I lived in upstate NY in winter of '95 - '96 when the Hudson river rose up and swallowed a city block and then froze back over until spring. We had a record snowfall and then before the snow could be cleared had January thaw conditions. Then winter returned.
That was a year of hard winter in NY.
So amazing how powerful nature is/can be.
That’s an incredible amount of force to move that much ice!
The wind drives the water, and water is the most powerful source on earth.
@@scrapcash2421 yessir!
And so fast
it’s crazy just a few thousand years ago this place was buried under 1-2 miles of ice
Think of the potential damage to bridges crossing those water courses over those creeks and rivers.
No way I could ever live in weather like this. I would cry all the time.
It’s awesome! There’s something about this type of weather that energizes your soul, the storms are loud!!! But the next day it’s so still, with vivid blue skies and total strangers are excited to talk to each other about “surviving” the storm and if they had any damage, I don’t think you would cry for long😂 it gets into you.
We definitely cry a lot, but it's not because of the weather I can promise you that! Lmao
its not so bad. it was over 70 today in Buffalo
@@mlliexxxnikki maybe with josh Allen we wont we crying at all this year
I'm glad you guys can find beauty in this. Just looking at the ice in the river is making me shiver. I just cannot imagine living like this. I would like to see it just once, maybe. LOL
just beautiful - thanks! 🌬🌊
This is Definitely!! one of those, you have to see it, to Believe it. 😲
That’s impressive. Thanks for posting.
incredible footage, thanks for sharing.
I remember that storm. Took out a huge section of the Buffalo breakwall by the south gap. Lost a several pontoons from the ice boom. But probably the worst was all the houses that had damage in Woodlawn by Bethlehem steel. Crazy storm.
This is a great video, talk about perfect timing, it's hard to catch the ice when it might be reacting this way.
Beautiful to watch Morher Nature!
Whoa! I guess bicycling and jogging on that path was a bit more challenging that day.
I've never seen ice piling up and tumbling in blocks like this footage as it piles into trees on the shore.
Never knew there were bridges across any great lakes (referring to title). Wild stuff at any rate!
There are dozens. There are 3 International Bridges alone in Michigan. Bridges like the Blue Water Bridge in Port Huron deal with very fast water speeds. You will die if you fall in with no life jacket. It is very dangerous. Dozens of boats have to be rescued every year. Standing on shore, it's very impressive to see water move like that.
wow amazing,...thank you from San Antonio, Texas
Now this isn't Lake Superior here, however this gives you an idea what the giant ore freighter The Edmund Fitzgerald went though when it was tossed about on the night she went down with the loss of all 29 of those guys back on November 10, 1975.
To the tale of edmund Fitzgerald *music hums* god damn I miss home. Nobody knows who that is down here in Chicago! fucking southerners
oo la...I couldn't grasp what ice shoves must be when reading about them...I can't imagine how shoremen must've fended them off back in the 1800s, sparing port facilities downstream here
Man, I never saw this in my life 😀
watching this from my air conditioned room in a tropical country lol
This is beautiful, those ice chunks were enormous! But, no thank you. I’ll just sit here in my warm Southern California beach lol
Those bridge piers need a steel, for lack of better words snow plow like the ones on trains. That way the force of the ice would be deflected to the sides.
They have that. most of the ones on the ohio river even have that steel plate.
Bridge piers like that up here are specially designed to withstand ice flows. They go through it every year all winter long. They are plenty strong enough!
Mother Nature is not to be messed with...😮
This is utterly insane!!
Wow...Just Wow!!
Nature is beautiful and inspiring and wonderous and violent and dangerous and jaw dropping!!
Stay safe when you are out trying to get the "best" angle or shot....
Because anything could happen!!
Gonna need 2 safety cones.
AMAZING!
Does anyone know where I could get ice for my beer cooler?
Wow. That was Erie!
Yep. AKA "The Mistake on the Lake". Or "Little Detroit".
😂🤣
Not Erie. Ft. Erie, Ontario, Canada - across the river from Buffalo.
I was there the next night and as a point of reference at 4:32 in the video there is a yellow and black arrow sign on the light pole. The top of that sign is 6 feet off the ground. At 4:39 in the video there is a chunk of ice sitting on the grass below the arrow sign that was 2 feet thick. If I remember correctly there was ice in that area till late June possibly till early July.
About as fierce as it gets here in Montana. That's harsh to be out in.
Wow that is super gorgeous
Amazing
This looks like a job for post 10
And he would unclog that culvert and drain the whole lake! 😂😂😂😂
Yep - the combo of wind and water ain't about no bullshit!!!
Yo VIP, let's kick it .
Wow.....just wow
Molto bene , Evitaeterna.
Wow!!beautiful!!but scary😦😦
That was awesome
This is intense
I have seen this happen plenty of times on Lake Huron and Superior. I often laugh when they talk about Hurricanes hitting Florida and the Gulf.
We went from the freezer to the frying pan, as it were --- Hurricanes suck. But usually one has sufficient notice about where it might track and take the needed steps -- Beating the rush to evacuate if needs be. Most down here though tend to make sure there have needed hurricane supplies in case power goes out, they put away things outside which would be a hazard and the smart ones don't wait until the last minute to top off their gas and make sure they have food, water and other supplies.
Up north we dealt with that harsh weather much the same way: Never went out without being properly dressed in the winter with back up emergency supplies in the truck. Before winter hit we'd make sure the house had a good going over and it was weather ready. Check and double check we had several cords of wood in case in case we lost power and had to rely on the wood stove for heating and cooking. Made sure the pantry and basement was stocked and if we were looking at a *really* cold snap, double up on insulation on pipes that were near an exterior wall.
We also made sure to always keep our bird feeding stations with plenty of food since birds will know to go there and if it runs out, that could literally cost those darling chickadees their life.
Forget giants and dragons..... Force of Nature 8/8 Trample.. this used to be the largest creature in the original edition of the card game MTG..... This is why.
Is this for broadcast?
"Wow"
❤️🙏🏻🇺🇸. Dad : .... “ Get our shovels ! “ .......... Midwest Tough !
An excellent video. 💙 T.E.N.
Water is flowing like river...
If you broadcast this video on CZcams, I wonder why it would have the notice that it is "not for broadcast".
Maybe because I'm the owner of the video and it would be stolen otherwise?
The end is near God bless u all
WOW!
You can't stop that
That's hundreds of tons of force
GET AWAY FROM THERE !!!!!
سبحان الله وبحمده عدد خلقه ورضا نفسه وزنة عرشه ومداد كلماته
Time to move south and stay.!!!
Is it normal?
Yes.
Texas though it was cold here last winter ha this is cold
Wow David, wow 😂😂😂 wow
Ice be like you think it's cool to demolish protective ancient Glaciers at my home let's see how you like it. 🌍💔🙏
Why would a melted glacier lake care about glaciers
You just can't beat MOTHER NATURE............. 😂
4:30 Going to take out that light pole, it's already leaning
Slow it down, Please
Erie, Pennsylvania is the absolute worst place to live or raise a family. The majority of the population there are angry unhealthy beings. The weather is so miserable most of the time it's indoor living.
That explains why most of them voted for Trump!
@@tomrogers9467 😂😂
This was Fort Erie, Ontario.
2:40
People who came from a place that isn’t cold in the 1500s see this and start wars over witchcraft
The hand of God
Stupid, its ice melting
@@guynorth3277 you see stupid... I see God. For such beauty can not be made of man. Have a blessed and happy day
@@veronicaferro4976; You see whatever you need to, I do not know your degree of psychosis. If you need to cling to your childish, insecure beliefs that is your business, and your personal detachment from society, just don't bring that pathetic nonsense into American politics. Hey fool look how the psychopath use that stupid ancient religion agains you. I woke up today, so I am good with the universe, I don't need to make up a bunch of silly nonsense about it.
@@veronicaferro4976; I could give a flying "trump" with whatever you see. Fools looked at trump and saw a great leader who cared about America, brimming with integrity. People clearly see all kinds of nonsense and fill in the spaces with their own psychosis. Live like a sick insecure five year old, as long as it works for you, but not voting or driving please.
@@guynorth3277 big hug

Pyongyang city.
Крик "вау",похож на вопли мартовских котов.
а ты как высказываешь удивление?
Who said global warming is a bad thing.
The **NOT FOR BROADCAST** was so annoying that I quit watching right away.
I couldn't care less. Thanks.
You're easily annoyed by minor things. 🤣
I hardly saw it with amazing footage being played. Great vid!
Did you poop your pants too and die?
This ice melted and caused a flood
