Wall of ice destroys Manitoba homes, cottages

A local state of emergency has been declared in a western Manitoba municipality after homes in Ochre Beach were destroyed and seriously damaged by a wave of lake ice.

Area officials told CBC News the wind pushed built-up ice off Dauphin Lake on Friday evening and caused it to pile up in the community, located on the lake's southern shore.



Now this sure make me glad I only have a small lake at the front of my place
and their not one single thing you can do and watch it happen

Sorry but this one is in Ochre Beach is about 300 kilometres northwest of Winnipeg and 20 kilometres east of Dauphin.

Looks like they'll save on the A/C bill

j/k

That's got to suck.

How do they get in and out is my question?

Ok found a youtube

I know the area very well as that's where I was born and raised.

But this is a first for me. We have had floods in numbers too large to count and the ice is just a given. But this isn't normal.

Peace
