Frozen

Ice and ice floats cover the Moriches Bay Inlet by West Hampton

We've had a truly cold winter so far and even after a couple of warming days, the south shore bays between the Atlantic Ocean and the barrier islands are almost completely covered by ice. The water level rises and falls with the tide, leaving behind these pretty cool looking huge icy chunks. Contrary to the fact that they will float, even the smaller ones are incredibly heavy. I could not find one that I was actually able to lift.
