BIG SNOW STORM!!!!!!!!!
« on: Dec 02, 2005, 07:12 PM »
we might get a big storm monday into tuesday will it effect anything, if we start to get any ice in the next few day thats going to be gone right? but will the snow or slush on the lake freeze and make some ice.

with snow on top of a thin layer of ice that may have already formed,or snow changing to ice is going to create a dangerous situation for 1st ice . Need 4 days of 10-15 degrees days with no or light wind to lock a pond or lake and start making some BLACK ice. BE CAREFUL
GOOD LUCK - GOOD FISHING

For first ice it can make it dangerous.  However as the winter progresses you will get better ice under the white ice.  Obvously the ice freezes from the top down so you'll get better ice later in the season if you don't have it early on.

it all depends how much ice is on the lake and then also how much snow falls
  if it stays windy like this there isnt going to be much ice but for right now it would must likely hurt the ice unless we only recieve 1-2 inches of snow then the snow would get wet and freeze
 but then it would make the water under it harder to freeze because the snow is insulating the ice

weather just said 2-5" for tomarrow  and Mikey it not to safe if the snow freezes its really weak ice which bites because thats the faster way to get ice but not safe i hope there is no ice(i cant believe i just said that) until these storms are over  :-\

this comeing week looks real good for making some black ice so no snow would be geat

What a surprise, the weatherman was wrong once again. Only thing that is good is the colder temps are sticking around.

Interesting forecast upcoming. An inch an hour Friday, 8 to 10" would make a dangerous scenario for waters that have some ice on them already, be careful. Those that have no ice may turn out to be a blessing.

Seen a few forecasters calling for up to 10", not good ! The maps make it look like it's going to hit us versus last weeks coastal storm.

Here in Peabody, on the coast we got a ton of rain. We have about 2" of slush. I guess its better than 10" of snow.
