If you have ever wondered this question, I'm here to help try and answer it.

Are 'Ice Volcanoes' the new 'Ice Balls' along the Michigan shore?

Several thousand bowling ball-sized ice balls began washing up on the shore at Holland State Park. And to make it even more fun, some big bruisers, the size of beach balls and larger, were spotted bobbing in the Lake Michigan waves just offshore.

The wreck of the Edmund Fitzgerald is the Great Lakes' most famous shipwreck. There are 9,000+ more; here's where to find them and how to explore the remains.

While many Michigan residents were busy stocking up at the grocery store and preparing to hunker down for a pending storm, a brave few suited up and grabbed their surf boards to hit the frigid waters of Lake Michigan.

The two walked out onto the pier a little before midnight. Both were swept off the pier by a high wave and into the near freezing water.

It turns out there was once a plan to build a canal linking the Clinton River on the east side, with the Kalamazoo River. This would have ultimately linked Lake Michigan with Lake St. Clair.

I'm not saying it's aliens. Probably bored college kids.

It's been a tough couple of weeks for, well, ANYTHING that touches Lake Michigan.

Something called a "mid-latitude cyclone" swept through Michigan over the weekend. Up to ten foot waves were recorded along West Michigan's Lakeshore. Here's video of the big waves on the big lake Sunday afternoon.
