Some watched in awe and others in horror as a 'tsunami of ice' crashed ashore.

window.havePowaBoot=true; By Matthew Cappucci February 26 at 12:03 PM Ice atop a frozen lake can be serene and peaceful. But when that ice leaps onto land with explosive force, as it did Sunday on the eastern shores of Lake Erie, the results can be terrifying. Some watched in awe and others in horror as what appeared to be a tsunami of ice crashed ashore in Mather Park, over the Peace Bridge in Canada across from Buffalo. A similar scene unfolded seven miles south in Hamburg, N.Y.

Data suggests that’s what happened at noon Sunday. In 12 minutes, the temperature at Sturgeon Point, N.Y., fell 12.2 degrees, from nearly 50 degrees to the mid-30s. It was the third time in two hours that a temperature fluctuation of at least 10 degrees had occurred. At the same time, air pressures rose as cooler, denser air piled up on the ground. Observed water levels at Sturgeon Point, N.Y. Over the next 2½ hours, the water level rose 4.13 feet.
