It's 9F and calm at 1:30am in Howell, MI. Lake Chemung was skimmed over earlier as well as a portion of Howell lake by the boat launch. Hopefully this warm up and rain coming doesn't melt all the ice.
But don't quote me on that. I have a drinking problem, I keep running out of beer. I've always been a little bit crazy, but its kept me from going insane.

I checked out the Selfridge DNR boat launch on Sunday afternoon.  It was open water.  I checked it today around noon, and it was iced over.  There was ice well into the lake also.  Still too soon for a walking test, but it's progress.  :)

Here's hopin' for cold weather the rest of the week.

Uh-oh. Maybe that cold weather we've been looking forward to next week will come with a potload of snow.

Here comes the rain again, temps are rising, cold fronts coming. Time to go stock up on bait and wait some more. Guess I'll go do some more jiggin on the couch.

38* and the drizzle continues. Winter Storm Watch issued for Saturday night through Sunday, 5"- 9" of snow is the last thing we need

I know the ice is coming, but the suspense is killing me.

I guess we'll take what ever we can at this point, beggars can't be choosers. Looks like winters coming back to kick our butts!

Raining fairly hard now, thankfully the ice will be gone before the CRAP really starts

Doesn't seem like we're going to get as much snow as they predicted. The amount of snow keeps going down.
I'd rather be fishing!
