Cautious Optimism

Looks like after today we'll be making some of the hard stuff!!! Here in the metro anyways

This wind is so frustrating. We should have a good 3-4" by now on most lakes.

Finally starting to see some formation on a few lakes in the north metro. Hopefully this snow storm over the weekend won't hit us.

Looks like next week is going to be a great week for making ice with lows below zero every day in the Cities. After that I'm expecting to have enough ice to walk on. Time to get my gear out of storage and get it ready to go.

 

BTW, the web cam at Harty's on Medicine Lake shows ice for as far as the camera goes.

Saw two houses about 50 yards out on a part of wahkon bay yesterday on Mille lacs. Flip over and a hub style one. I think that area was open water on Monday and possibly still on Tue. Be safe people........
