Starting all over?
« on: Jan 26, 2016, 04:49 PM »
The 10 day forecast is not looking great,after one day like today the ice has deteriorated greatly. Hopefully in wrong but it looks like we may have to start over after next week. Hope everyone is safe and uses good judgement!

Time to get the boat or waders out,the thaw is going to be around awhile so I don't think any iffy waters are going to be safe from here on out.

The way I see it the temps forecasted are daytime highs That means its below freezing for more hours than it's above.
As long as it don't rain or get really windy during the day when its above 32 the ice that is on now should stay ok for the most part.

Looking at the Accuweather's forecast for February, the second and third week don't look to bad. Subject to change of course!
