Niagara Falls has frozen over due to temperatures which dropped to 16F on Wednesday

Yet another arctic blast is set to strike the central and eastern United States on Wednesday evening, bringing sub-zero temperatures to many parts.  Things are going to get even colder. 
 
The popular tourist destination will stay frozen for some time because temperatures are expected to drop even more come Thursday

In fact, almost the entire East Coast, including parts of Florida, will reach below freezing temperatures on Thursday night.
 
'The attention the Falls is receiving is bringing a crowd to view them in their majestic, winter splendor!' said Michelle Blackley, communications & community relations manager for the Falls
In New York City, temperatures will stay in the teens all day Thursday and by nightfall will be in the single digits and possibly even below 0, making it the coldest it has gotten in the city during this already brutal winter.

The pressure-fed fountain is in a pond near the Glen Iris Inn at Letchworth State Park, which straddles the Wyoming-Livingston county line 40 miles south of Rochester. Days of subzero temperatures have formed a solid cone of ice several feet thick with water still spouting out of the top.
