What global warming? Now the sea is FREEZING... astounding pics show nearly FROZEN WAVES
AS the USA battles with one of the coldest winters on record, a photographer has captured the amazing moment the sea almost froze.
American photographer Jonathan Nimerfroh was walking along the beach in Nantucket, in Massachusetts when he suddenly saw the ocean beginning to freeze.
He took several pictures of a number of semi-frozen waves as they crashed against the coast.
Mr Nimerfroh said: "When I got to the top off the dunes I saw that about 300 yards out from the shoreline that the ocean was starting to freeze.
"The high temperature that day was around 19F (-7C).
"The wind was howling from the south-west, which would typically make rough or choppy conditions not good for surfing, but since the surface of the sea was frozen, the wind did not change the shape."
US WBZ-TV chief meteorologist said: "It looks like a big Slurpee rolling ashore."
Its not the first time this year near frozen waves have been seen, earlier this week Niagara Falls was pictured turning into a 'frozen waterfall'
Meanwhile other waves were spotted frozen at Nova Scotia's Martinique Beach Provincial Park on Valentine's Day, turning the beach into icy dunes.
Climate change deniers will be quivering at the news.
