Amazing images have been captured of homes along a waterfront Canadian community near Buffalo, New York completely frozen over following the massive winter storm that swept through the region earlier this week. The photos emerging out of the Crystal Beach area of Fort Erie show properties encased in ice after wind from the storm sent water ashore.  The two-story homes along Lake Erie were frozen over from the ground up to their roofs. “It’s beautiful, looking at this. I have to say that for it,” a man named Don, who reportedly has lived in the area for 18 years, told CityNews. “Unfortunately, though, it causes a lot of damage.” BUFFALO LIFTS DRIVING BAN AFTER NEARLY A WEEK AS WINTER STORM RECOVERY EFFORTS ONGOING
