#4 Phil, I am a bit "knowy knowy" on Niagara Falls as I once did my Westinghouse Science Fair project on it when gas was still under .50 a gallon... They divert about 70% of the flow after the lights go out both for Hydro electric purposes over the Horseshoe Falls, but also to preserve the rock structure of Niagara itself. The tourist come to see Niagara Falls and not the Buffalo rapids! My dad also grew up there and he told me when he was a teen in the 30's it froze over and you could walk out to the edge. This was before the diverter dams were built I think. |

#2 Deara Rantburgers. In this times of global warming I send you this piece of Siberian wisodom. "If you spit and ut freezes before it reaches ground it means it is minus 55 Celsius and you definitely need a thick coat." |

#1 It's not generally realized that they turn Niagra Falls off at night to generate Hydro. Which facilitates overnight freezing. |
