Calling for heavy rain on Sunday. Let's hope they're wrong.

Looks like a good weekend for the ez up shelter. Mount Tom had a skim at the shore on Sunday when I brought my canoe there. I can check later this week and provide a report. It has been very windy in western ct and moving water doesn't freeze well.

8 in Gbury this morning when I woke up at 6. It feels colder than that here at the shop in the South end of Hartford. The wind always whips across Bulkeley High School's softball field. It's crazy cold here!

8 in South Windsor this morning too. The pond in the backyard finally has solid ice across it this morning, not just a thin skin.

Gardners as usual n to s wind . Only ice is the sloppy wind blown crap at launch as expected . other ponds out of wind were closing up nicely

octanehi5 · « **Reply #220 on:** Jan 05, 2016, 03:39 PM »

Was just out checking ice this afternoon at 2 local ponds in the northeast part of the state. Had 3 to 3 1/2 inches of ice on both of them. Tonight should make it a lot closer to 4. I'll be attempting to ice fish on Saturday morning... Would be out tomorrow but I have to work

9* in Enfield as of 7am. Here's a little tease I just took. Didn't walk far out being that I'm heading to work and I'm alone but seemed like are least 2". Didn't hear any cracking

bugchazer · « **Reply #223 on:** Jan 06, 2016, 05:56 AM »

Big old snowman here as well.

colby157 · « **Reply #226 on:** Jan 06, 2016, 08:05 AM »

Had 4 inches on my pond this morning

Ravo Himself · « **Reply #227 on:** Jan 06, 2016, 08:11 AM »

I'm gonna check a few ponds Friday after work. Plan on fishing Saturday morning

sr73087 · « **Reply #228 on:** Jan 06, 2016, 08:54 AM »

11 in Trumbull. How do you think this rain and warmup this weekend will affect the little we have so far?

Only went a half step on. The ice was super clear. Only about an 1.5 or so probably, it cracked as I stepped off. Maybe enough for this weekend though.

octanehi5 · « **Reply #229 on:** Jan 06, 2016, 10:55 AM »

at noon its just 32 and with only 4 hrs of daylight left it will not be long before the temps are below freezing again, after sunday we will have a return of artic air

colby157 · « **Reply #230 on:** Jan 06, 2016, 11:19 AM »

The smaller ponds should be fine through Sunday. Then the cold weather returns after that

Curley · « **Reply #231 on:** Jan 06, 2016, 05:59 PM »

Hope to take a ride Saturday, Tackle in tow. The latest forcast had the rain not as heavy as I had heard this morning, if you want to believe them. Cold temps next week should lock more up..

octanehi5 · « **Reply #232 on:** Jan 07, 2016, 06:11 AM »

17 this morning

bugchazer · « **Reply #233 on:** Jan 07, 2016, 09:22 AM »

I may take a ride sat. Also. Maybe I can find some ice

Global Warming in CT · « **Reply #234 on:** Jan 07, 2016, 10:06 AM »

I've been enjoying the Niantic River scalloping season but itching to get out of the boat and onto the ice. I may scout out some places in NE CT but my area (SE corner) will probably not be fishable this weekend with the expected temps. Maybe a road trip is in order?

livetoicefish90 · « **Reply #235 on:** Jan 07, 2016, 10:40 AM »

Sunday is gonna wipe out probably everything mid state and south just hope it doesn't wipe out to much up state, really cold next week again and still planning on making the first trip the 17th

Kierran · « **Reply #236 on:** Jan 07, 2016, 10:51 AM »

Wunderground has a high of 52 for the "icebox of Connecticut" on Sunday. Between Saturday night and Sunday, they are also calling for 1.25" of rain. Let's hope they're way off...

TT · « **Reply #237 on:** Jan 07, 2016, 01:24 PM »

Kierran, not looking like a good season for smelting old Colie.

octanehi5 · « **Reply #238 on:** Jan 09, 2016, 06:05 AM »

Not cold enough to make ice, with next weeks weather turning cold,hopefully Sundays weather will not take all that has formed.50 with rain should not distroy in less than 24 hrs. what took 4 day to make

livetoicefish90 · « **Reply #239 on:** Jan 09, 2016, 03:35 PM »

Octanehi5 I 100% agree. I don't think one day will wipe out everything that we have. It's saying 80% chance but I don't think it will be hard enough to make a lot of damage and Monday the weather goes right ack down into the low 30s
