When freezing temperatures and wind turned this house into an ice castle
At first this appears to be a house covered in wool or an old building covered in algae. However, this is a house covered from top to bottom in intense ice. The lowest temperature recorded is -51 degrees Fahrenheit, so there’s little doubt about how brutal Michigan winters can get. Amidst the biting cold and freezing temperatures live people whose homes are frequently covered in thick ice.

The simple act of water freezing can yield such interesting and unanticipated results; it’s hard to believe how residents in cold areas cope with such harsh conditions. People living by Lake Erie face the most brutal winters. Winds can blow at 50 mph, causing the ice to completely cover most of the houses, including the doors and windows.
