Just got in from cleaning out the yard must have at least 12 inches and the wind is really screaming out there. The roads look pretty tough, have not seen more then one pickup go by here today.

You got that right, St. Cloud has a high of -4 tomorrow with a low -27 tomorrow night :o. Even with the snow insulating, these cold temps should still make some decent ice. Just imagine how fast the ice would grow if we didn't have all this dang snow.
How many times do I gotta go through holes before I watch where I'm going? I am an amateur fisherman, but an all star minnow drowner!

For sure.  Regardless, I should have the wheelhouse out next week!  I was on a solid 9 inches yesterday.

my buddy was out fishing in this and said that it was all frozen solid when he was walking off of the ice.  Then again, we didn't get the snow down here that they got north of here.

Earliest we have had it like this in a few years, this is awesome. Too bad with the snow or else we would be able to even faster. Can't wait to get the wheelhouse out, bought an ice castle last year and fished out of my portable instead most of the year :-\

It's -8 right now and according the weather underground, it is the warmest it is going to get today.

Well, it's warmed up to like 2 degrees here, but it's snowing now.  The roads are gnarly.
