The lake Michigan shoreline ice changes by the hour it seems. You can almost see the fisherman’s boat as he navigates thru the small pancake ice back to the St. Joseph river. Looking north toward the St Joseph Piers. Rather flat lake conditions today with a narrow band of protective shoreline ice.Up norths a ways this is the South Haven (Michigan) pierssurround by pancake ice but the ice pack is larger as you proceed north prodded by the north currents and wind. It was a very chilly but Blue Sky day and great for flying. This is the SW Michigan Regional Airport (KBEH) in Benton Harbor Michigan and as you can see the only ice and snow to be seen is in the shadows along the river banks.
