Yup I think we are finally getting there. Smaller lakes should freeze up pretty quick.

As soon as this wind stops it's game on for freezing water.

It will hit the teens for lows right after the snow but then they are calling for an inch Monday but clear after that. Fingers crossed

28*f currently wind nw at 2 mph currently increaseING to 20 mph over night and dropping yo 16*f over night...


Also just got done clearing the drive already got two more inches on it .. within one hour of doing it..


By the way snow can pe postive this early in season..  because once thin ice cracks it make ice thicker...  when it refezees in a week or two this happened to me about 15 years ago we got 3 to 4 inches of fresh ice then bam...  we got hit with 18 inches of fresh snow... wich the weight Cracked ice and made ice thicker.. but there is down side to snow one it's s insulator the other is it hides fault in ice!!  so be sure to use your spuds every one!! So be carefull cause the ice can be thicker in one spot thinner in another.. this is were a spud will guide ya..

Didn't get as cold as they were predicting for today.

They said single digits but it's been hovering around 18-20
