I predict to be on the ice Saturday.
If I had a penny for every time, people thought they would get rich from getting pennys for every thing they claim they do or hear, over and over again, I would be richer than Richy Rich.
HUH?

i'm saying most of us around and north of kankakee will be good to go by midweek next week. hopefully some semblance of the pad remains to start icing things up by then.

I'm around the Peoria area and I think we MAY have a shot new year. The small ponds here have ice in the morning now and it melts as the day goes. Looking at the 10 day  we might have a solid "cap" by Sunday and then using the freezing degree day method 4" is possible by about December 30th. This will obviously depend greatly on the wind and body of water but there is a chance.
