Ice ????????

Hi, Well just looked at 3 of the exended monthly Wx reports and it doesn't bode well for decent/reliable ice to form between now and Christmas. Yes! We're going to get the next 2 days of cold Wx, but 2 days isn't enough. After the 2 cold days -> daytime temps are going back up into the 40's. We will have a week of cold daytime temps, that will be at or below freezing, starting the day after Christmas. Patience is the key word here! The decent/reliable ice will come! Stay Safe, SeaDog1

Hey Seadog, well the ice situation, or lack therof, is having a serious effect on my physical health! Mental instability mostly. Last night at dinner I reached into my glass of cola and proceded to drill a 5/8" hole into an ice cube. :shock: I looked through the hole and figured,well, the ice was about 2" thick. So i proceded with caution and gently stepped onto the ice(cube) and wouldn't you know it....THE ICE CRACKED!!! :shock: Luckily my wife was nearby and she shot me a safety line! She pulled me out of harms way and after i regained my composure i just thought to myself "what if she hadn't been there" i could have gotten seriously killed!!! That was actually the first time i had ever broken through ice and believe me i hope it's the last!!! :wink:
