The Atlantic Ocean Taking on the Look of a Giant Slurpee

It's no big deal around here to see Lake Erie freeze solid during the winter, but how about when the ocean starts to freeze?  Now that's cold. 

It's been a miserably cold winter for the Midwest and Northeast United States, so cold that the ocean is beginning freeze.  This past week the Atlantic Ocean waves off of Massachusetts' Nantucket Island took on the look of frozen slush.  Add a little color and you've got yourself a 7-11 Slurpee.
