Here in SK southern lakes are now receiving 4-6 inches of ice with central lakes being 6-10" and some more. current temp is -25 with the overnight average the past 2 days being -33.

Glad this snow is not coming on the weekend when we should see a good skim of ice in some places. That would have haulted our ice making for a little while  

The small pond in town up at my cottage was completely frozen over as of Saturday. If there is no ice around here soon, you bet you can find me out there chasing pike and pannies before the chaos around here. Trout opens up on Decemeber 20th as an exception up there so my first ice weekend might be kind of intresting this year

Got out Saturday.  3.5 to 4 inches.  The season has begun!!!
