Stumbled upon this meeting and had just a few seconds to catch it. The ice has largely broken up now in the Narrows (near the Verrazzano Bridge between Brooklyn and Staten Island) and is floating away with the current. A friend pointed out that salt water has a much lower freezing point than fresh water—28 degrees F vs the typical 32. Logical but I’ve never had reason before to think about it. So it’s been cold! Which helped make the “rime” ice from the splashing waves –thanks, John, I always learn a lot from you.
