Supercooled Ice Breakthrough in Michigan

I recently received an email from my wife's sister, who was forwarded the remarkable images below by a friend living in Michigan. I'm of course wondering if this might be yet another unanticipated effect of global climate change?
Her friend made the following comment:
"Michigan has had the coldest winter
in decades. Water expands to freeze, and
at Macinaw City the water in Lake
Huron below the surface ice was
supercooled. It expanded to break through
the surface ice and froze into this
incredible wave. -- I've seen pictures
of this wave phenomena in Antarctica, but in Michigan? Yes, it's been
quite a
winter..."
