The cold weather has formed ice on Lake Superior, but miles out where the water is still open, sea smoke formed and this day it was very thick fog.

As the cold weather has stuck around for days, the ice is stretching out farther across Lake Superior.

As the snow storm front approached yesterday, the wind picked up and caused some waves on Lake Superior.

A Sunday stroll on a Lake Superior beach may be a little slippery with the snow and ice, although the snow has been melting the last few days and more sand is reappearing.

My walk on the beach today had a different feel because most of the sand was frozen and I barely left a shoe print as I walked along until I got to where the waves were coming in. Plus I wasn’t able to pick up some of the pretty rocks since they too were frozen to the ground. With the warmer waves today, the snow and ice pack melted back but snow will eventually cover the beach again for the winter.

This Lake Superior beach is already accumulating ice on the shore making the rocks extra slippery with their frozen coating.

“Red sky at morning, sailors take warning” is a line from a rhyme used for weather forecasting the past two millennia by mariners. But the sunrise was more pink than red so no storm, especially since the day was in the 40s and it might be the last 40 degree day for the year until next spring.

The very nice warm November day had me wishing that I was up at Lake Superior sitting on the rock bench while listening to the waves.

Although the temperatures remained chilly, a sunset over a beach added a touch of orange warmth on an early November weekend.

Walking the cliffs along the shore of Lake Superior also provides a nice autumn view too.
