The photographs of frozen rivers and lakes hit hard by the Polar Vortex spread rapidly over the last few days of freezing temperatures. Everything ranging from the Hudson River to Midwest lighthouses were frozen and photographed, including Niagara Falls – just make sure you’re looking at the right picture.
As reported by The Atlantic (http://bit.ly/1ksq4AD) in the time between when people thought Niagara Falls was going to freeze and when there was actual evidence that it had, a fake photo started to spread through social media.
As the fake photo made its way around social media sites, Niagara Falls actually was freezing, as photographs yesterday from EPA and Reuters shows.

The American falls freeze almost every year. The Canadian falls didn’t freeze (and haven’t since 1911).
These are nice photos, but this is not news.
Is this what Hell will look like when it freezes over?

Why do you make such nasty comments?
Global warming, right? I thought #2 was funny, some of you need to lighten up
Your all a bunch of losers reading these comment and letting them have an impact on your life
The Falls froze in the 1800’s too, I think.
