If we get some calm nights this week maybe some of the bigger lakes will lock up. I'm hoping for the 26th or 27th to venture out on it but no later than Dec 1st. Gonna go check out some more small water tommorow for ice.
Ill keep you guys posted.

Even more important than the overnight lows is to keep the wind down! It will freeze soon as long as we dont keep the wind moving.

Wasnt no 40 in Sioux Center yesterday, that wind was a cold 28* at its warmest. We are all excited bout ice but the ground is not cooling as fast as we would like. This morning, late start at school because of freezing drizzle. The ground is getting cold. Ice will form real soon now.

Saturday I saw some skim ice on a small pond in Central Iowa so it'll be sooner rather than later...

Well, I was busting through ice on Saturday morning at the duck ponds we were hunting. Some pretty thick stuff, really hurt the shins when breaking through it trying to set dekes! The pond was completely locked up, assuming the same will continue to happen! It's getting closer!
