Norwegian Icebreaker heads up the Mississippi River

As you may have seen on the news it's been very cold in Minnesota . So cold, in fact, that the US Corp of Engineers has borrowed a Norwegian Icebreaker to clear the Mississippi River for freighter traffic. The Icebreaker is starting near Winona and working its way northward.

Here is a picture as the hard work of ice breaking begins. Impressive!
