the hannibal ny through north wolcott ny area got another 12-15 inches last night. the total on the ground is over 2 feet and growing. the blind sodus little sodus bay area has that much on top of weak thin ice. use extreme caution if you feel that you have to go icefishing in these areas. the bite has been slow because of the high pressure. hope this helps big dave out.

LAKE EFFECT !!

We get hit here too in West Michigan. Luckily the Lake Michigan shoreline here in Muskegon goes from NNW to SSE and we "usually" don't get hit as bad as locations farther north and just to the south.

Let's hope for some wind to blow that snow off the ice.

Blind sodus is just fine been out there. There is a good six inches of ice and the snow is blowing off it. Good to go
