This week I noticed viral videos getting around of massive chunks of ice invading the shores of the Great Lakes region. The videos show something called "ice shoves." They have also been called "ice pushes," "ice heaves," or "ice surges." In an ice shove, winds are relatively strong and sustained. The current wind speeds and directions on the Great Lakes (graphic below) suggest that a few more viral ice shove videos are likely possible in the coming days
