The relatively warmer temperatures and sunshine of the last several days have caused areas of ice that had been affixed to the western shore of Lake Michigan off the Racine and Kenosha areas to break away from the shore. The blustery west winds on Tuesday have carried these floating ice "bergs" several miles away from shore.

The warmer temperatures and wind have almost eliminated all the visible ice off shore of southeast Wisconsin. Even the more expansive area of ice over far southern and southeast Lake Michigan has shrunk over the last several days.
