On the first note, I just created this account and I don't really know where to place problems like this, I did look around, but if this isn't in correct location, please tell me!
It started off as just a few ice blocks clinging along to the shore, too little for me to notice. Eventually I went over to the area around 3-5 weeks later and pretty much the entire ocean was frozen over. The shore in question is actually a desert, but now it is covered with SNOW.
This may be an error with Minecraft (this world was starting in Beta 1.9) because it seems the game is changing biomes into Taiga. I checked the desert a while back, it still read desert, but now that same section is frozen over and called "Taiga".
Of course, I've tried glowstone, but it is far too time consuming to fight the rapid progress of the ice and snow. It's not just the desert either, in the meantime, many forests, islands, and lakes are also quickly turning into icecubes.
I love this world, but I had to abandon it temporarily so it wouldn't freeze. Minecraft Forums, you're my only hope.
I believe in 1.2 they changed it so that the biome data is stored so that it won't be screwed up by future updates. But prior to that biomes would get messed up every time the terrain generation was altered. The MCedit tip is a good one.

I tried it with terrible results. I gave my wife my glasses for a second, a creeper showed up and now my wife is pregnant.
Stupid 3D..
