Three of North America's Great Lakes -- Lake Huron(center right), Lake Superior(upper left) and Lake Erie(lower center) -- have frozen over for the first time in nearly a decade after icy weather lasting more than a month, experts at Environment Canada said on March 11, 2003. The Great Lakes are seen in this March 9 satellite image.
