Lots of New Ice

Like much of the ice belt, Northern New England is finishing a week of very cold weather (cold by recent standards anyway). We suddenly have black ice all over the place. The new ice has gotten thick enough (4-6") for pressure ridges to form.  I happened to be near where one formed yesterday and I happened to have a running video camera in my hands (to record the sound) and it happened to be pointed pointed in the right direction...more luck than sense.  Click Here for more infomation and a link to the video.
