A Coast Guard crew aboard their 45-foot response boat patrols the harbor amid the bitter cold sea smoke. This natural occurrence happens when exceptionally cold air moves in over "warmer" water. Warmer in quotations because Boston Harbor water temps are hovering at a balmy 39 degrees with air dipping to 2 below zero. (U.S. Coast Guard photo by Petty Officer 3rd Class Ross Ruddell)
