We're all too familiar with those mornings spent scraping ice off our front windshields, but how in the world would you handle this one?
One fateful night, Justin Yelen parked his Mitsubishi next to Lake Erie, New York, while going out for drinks. After returning the next morning to pick it up, he had a little bit of trouble finding his car under the inch-thick ice encasing it.

"I hope summer comes soon," Yelen told local ABC station WKBW.
New York state had some pretty harsh weather in January, with areas receiving up to 86 centimeters (34 inches) of snow! The Lake Erie area (where Justin left his vehicle) is particularly susceptible to a “lake-effect snow" which causes snow clouds to form.
Justin's new popsicle-car, however, most likely fell victim to the Great Lake’s waves. On that night, the area was pummeled by 47 mph winds and massive waves. Massive waves that have crashed over car and froze throughout the night. Sorry Justin, we're all pullin' for you.
