Niagara Falls Transforms into Icy Wonderland Amidst Polar Vortex

  • A severe polar vortex has caused Niagara Falls to freeze, creating a dramatic winter spectacle.
  • Plunging temperatures below -20°C led to mist from the falls freezing into heavy ice build-up on cliffs and riverbanks.
  • Despite extreme cold, torrents of water continue to flow over the falls, generating thick, icy mist.
  • Sections of the Niagara River are partially frozen, with large ice sheets visible near the falls' brink.
  • Niagara Falls, a famous natural landmark between Canada and the US, comprises Horseshoe Falls, American Falls, and Bridal Veil Falls.

Why It Matters: Niagara Falls has been transformed into a stunning icy landscape due to a severe polar vortex.
