Photo Of The Day – Hudson River Ice

Gothamist just posted this photo of the Circle Line tourism boat navigating the icy Hudson. Last week the Coast Guard started icebreaking operations on the Hudson, using a fleet of five ice cutters to clear a shipping channel, primarily for the tankers that are delivering heating oil to upstate residents. The Bayonne-based Coast Guard cutter Sturgeon Bay has its own Facebook page where you can follow their operations and view the ice ice baby.
