Title: Time-lapse video shows 'sea smoke' building over Lake Superior
Post by: Cripplecreek on December 26, 2017, 11:02:17 pm
When Arctic air began rushing into The Great Lakes on Christmas Day, a television station in Duluth, Minn., was able to get time-lapse footage of a billowing curtain of "sea smoke" as it formed over Lake Superior.

Sea smoke - also called steam fog or frost smoke - appears when really cold air slides over a warmer expanse of water.



Cool video at site.
