A friend of mine invited me over to check out the ice passing his house on Fire Island Inlet on Wednesday morning at sunrise.

While not uncommon when the bay is frozen, it is still unique to see on the incoming tide as the Ocean water is much warmer than the bay.

I took a short drone flight and captured some images and video below and on page 2.

On Page 3 check out some images and video from the ground of the ice and ducks floating by.

As a bonus, the weather channel picked up one of the drone clips and is running it on their website.
