New York/IBNS: As the blizzard in the United States has messed up the Christmas weekend plans for many amid reports of several deaths due to harsh weather conditions, a video of Niagara Falls in Buffalo covered in ice has left the internet awestruck.

While there have been reports of widespread power outages and travel delays, these extreme conditions have turned Niagara Falls into a winter wonderland.

Due to the recent wave of sub-zero temperatures that have gripped the region, the falls have been transformed into a partially frozen winter wonderland.

While parts of the falls were frozen, the sheer volume of water that gushes over, combined with the constant movement of the raging liquid, ensures that they almost never completely freeze, the New York Post said.

"During particularly cold temperatures, the mist and spray begin to form a crust of ice over top of the rushing water, making it appear as though the Falls have in fact stopped. However, the water continues to flow underneath the sheets of ice," says the Niagara Parks website.

According to the Niagara Falls New York State Park, around 3,160 tonnes of water flows over Niagara Falls every second. It is falling at a rate of 32 feet per second.
