Niagara Falls is frozen! 🧊⁠ ⁠ Well, technically, it may look like it is, but the massive rushing spectacle is not even close to being an icicle. With Ontario reaching near-freezing temperatures this time of year, you may be left to wonder how Niagara Falls is still flowing in the winter. We’ve got the answer for you. 💧⁠ ⁠ Though the falls appear frozen to the naked eye, it’s actually the mist and spray that have formed a crust of ice over top of the rushing water. 👀⁠ ⁠ This in turn creates the illusion that the falls have stopped. You’ll find that the water continues to freely flow underneath the sheets of ice. 🌊⁠ ⁠ “While the Falls never truly freeze, it does turn into an icy wonderland with all of the mist and steam freezing on the rock and railings around the Falls,” Niagara Falls Tourism shares. “There is just too much water for the falls to stop flowing.” ❄️⁠ ⁠ Frozen or not, it sure is beautiful! 😍⁠ ⁠ Photo via Niagara Falls Tourism⁠ ⁠ #curiocitytoronto #niagarafalls
