Ice pancakes treat Manitobans to strange formations on water

Ice pancakes and ice balls have been showing up on Lake Manitoba and Lake Winnipeg recently, treating curious Manitobans to strange ice formations with the water covered by what resembles pebbles, rocks and even pancakes. The ice anomalies were spotted last weekend at Steep Rock, Man., on the northeast shore of Lake Manitoba by local resident Peter Hofbauer, who posted photos of the phenomena on Instagram with the simple question: “Have you ever seen the lake freeze like this?”
