Feb 20, 2020
An ice volcano exists in this world and this rare occurrence was recorded by the residents of Michigan and now the video is all over the internet for the world to watch.
The video shows an upright explosion of water and ice from the cone of the mountain. These icy volcanoes were seen erupting near Lake Michigan.

The science behind the eruption was explained by Cort Spholten, a meteorologist working with the National Weather Service of Grand Rapids. “The waves were strong enough so the water channels through, it squeezes water upwards and tosses the floating ice up. As it happens, over the course of hours or days, it forms a cone and it resembles a volcano,” He said in USA Today Report.
It was a great day to visit the beach and watch the waves interact with the ice. Here's a couple "ice volcanoes" erupting at Oval Beach on Sunday, February 16, 2020. #miwx #wmiwx pic.twitter.com/B0Vkl18RrN
