New York state has reached incredible new levels of cold. It's so chilly, in fact, that one house has been encased in ice.
The State reccently experienced an epic windstorm that left thousands of people without power, and Lake Ontario is expected to see even more snow for the next few days.
The house itself sits on the shore of Lake Ontario, Western New York, facing the water. Photographer John Kucko captured the photos after being tipped off by a local.

Kucko said people didn’t believe the photos were real, so he took a video.
Warning, just watching it will make you feel cold:
