16* and the possibility of 3"- 6"  of snow is of concern. Not fond of wind with the snow for others safety concerns on the road, but just enough wind to maybe blow most of it off the ice could be acceptable. A little warm up in the near future might help compress the snow a little without effecting the ice very much. It's Friday the 13th, we're all doomed anyway, hide and relax

19*f no snow yet it is going to start at 3:15 a.m. with light snow and we will get 3-4 inches according to weather.com.  along with  another 1 inch  to night  so lets hope it does not wreck the ice around south east michigan or any ware else.

19* and blowing snow. Considering on this date last year there was no ice ~40*. raining on and off. We're in reasonable shape to get a season in this year, relax we'll get there

currently 18*f with 4-6 inches of snow on the ground  do not think the ice is safe with all this snow on it 3 -3.5 inches of ice with 4-6 inches of snow on it.   is it going to crack from the weight? it mite  be a week before wee get out?   it looks like the 20th of December it is going to be 39*F and raining so how long will this weather last? also how long till were on the ice in south east Michigan again?

Don't get all excited about a little rain and 40 degrees its only for a day or two, look @ weather behind it.  I will be surprised if we see any grass till spring.  The ice is not gonna melt under the snow just be a little messy, fish on just keep yer spud handy!!  Gotta remember the ice under the snow is some of the best ice I have seen in yrs.

need 1 good warmup day with a nice  rain to clear out the snow, then we can go back to the 10 degree days for a few weeks.

Looks like a two day warmup coming. Should be great to get the snow reduced a bit on the ice for it to refreeze again. BTW 17
You may call me crazy, but crazy catches fish!
