The above freezing temperature and the sunshine today helped to melt some of the ice, but it also created more ice as the snow began to drip forming new icicles.
Snow Icicles

Some of the houses have large icicles forming from their roofs from all the recent snow starting to melt but at least they aren’t quite as big as these icicles along Lake Superior shoreline.

Some light snow was falling today and the flakes are lighter than one of these icicles, which you wouldn’t want one to drop on your head.

Most of my icicles fell off my roof in the sunshine today, but none of them looked as interesting as these found along the shores of Lake Superior.

This morning a number of birds were hanging on the icicles on my roof line catching the dripping water off the ends. I suppose that even those the icicles were slippery, it would have been easier getting water that way than trying eat snow coated with an ice layer. These icicles are a lot larger than the ones hanging outside my windows.
Hanging Around Icicles

I spotted an icicle on the corner of my house which was about four feet long and while it appeared super long to me, it paled compared to the ice formations on the shores of Lake Superior.

The wind was blowing the snow around today and even though the temperature managed to get above zero, the wind made it feel cold. And the long cold spell has been causing things to freeze up besides creating ice formations along the shore of Lake Superior.

Although the temperature never climbed above freezing today, the sun was strong enough to do some melting and causing some icicles to form on the edge of the roofs. They may be interesting to look at but I rather gaze on some spring flowers instead.
