2019 Nipissing Ice Report
« on: Nov 13, 2019, 04:19 AM »
With this frosty weather I might as well get started with this year's reports.  For those who don't know I live right on the North Shore of lake Nipissing so I will be updating regularly as the ice forms on the lake.  Here's the first report:

Warm temperatures and high winds have stripped off the ice. It looks like we have another week of rain and warm weather. This may be the last ice report for a week or so.

The ice is holding tight and building on Nipissing.

A beauty day on the ice.  Too bad the season is still closed.
