Abstract: “Ice Storm” is one of the most dangerous environmental phenomena that can arise at covered by ice water areas and presents serious hazard for offshore structures because moving with large speed ice floes can damage the structure as result of collision. It the paper the possible mechanism of ice floe capture by wave is stated, and the relationship between the dimensions of ice floe and characteristics of wind induced waves, which are capable to transport ice floes are presented. On the base of created mathematical model and known method of the wind heaving forecast, assessment of possibilities the ice storm occurrence at the Bohai Sea will be carried out and main outcomes will be stated.
