Now today, after 36 hours of temperatures under 10 degrees F (-10 C), the mighty Susquehanna River looks like this at the Rt. 30 bridge:

This position is 2/3rds of the way down on the Susquehanna image posted above. The river is a half-mile wide at this point, and hard to freeze over, but the mighty polar vortex of 2014 has just about done it.

(The puff of steam in the middle of the picture is the still-operating Three Mile Island nuclear power plant. There were two reactors at TMI. TMI-2 was the failed one; TMI-1 is still generating electricity.)
