Why is Lake Michigan so cold?

This is somewhat coplicated besides cold weather. Water reaches its maximum density at thirty-nine degrees (F). Then the water sinks and "turns over" and the process is repeated until the temperature is a homogenius 39, then the top layer cools and eventuall freezes. Deep lake take much longer to freeze, if at all (Lake Tahoe) for example. That's why shallow lakes freeze quicker and the ice is thicker. Salinity also plays a part...salt Walter freezing point averages 28 degrees (F)
