No way by April 15th. Enjoy the snow tomorrow night too. My guess is close to last year.

My ip camera caught this group of geniuses passing in front of my place on Mink Island this morning. Yeah yeah, plenty of ice... Well not so much over by Mark Island in the channel they're heading towards. And Cattle Landing is quite sketchy at this point too. And no snow to lube the track or cool the engine. What could possibly go wrong?
Nice view of Mount Washington this morning, however.... |

Doesn't look like we can get out to the island this weekend... but with predicted temps over 60 degrees and sunny all next week... maybe next weekend!
today's shot looking down the Pine/Bear channel -PIG |
Ice Out
My guess is April 29.
|
Ice out May 1 @ 10:40 am
|
In the FWIW dept. If anyone is interested in following ice-out on a lake other than Winni, you can follow the Merrymeeting one here, www.mmlake.org
At the very bottom of the page are links to two prior years for comparison. |
Rain

Rain and warm temps coming are going to do some real damage as you all know. Mix in a little wind.
It is sorta creepy and beautiful out this afternoon |
I highly doubt it will happen in May, this week is going to be almost in the 60's, with a couple days close to 70. A lot can happen with just a week of warm temps. Also, the long range looks like the warm temps will stay.Lets hope!

April 24
My original guess, and I think with the forecast that's still a good one. Lake seems to be rising nicely as well over the last week or so

Took some pictures while walking the Cotton Valley Rail Trail from Wolfeboro this morning.
The 1st is Back Bay, along the trail toward the end. You can see open water at the top where the Smith River enters the Bay. The river is flowing strongly and the Bay is open on both ends. The 2nd photo shows Crescent Lake, between Back Bay and Lake Wentworth, beginning to open up. The 3rd photo is also on Crescent, capturing four of everyone's favorite birds. I didn't take pictures, but when we drove by Wentworth, I didn't see any openings. 4th - Back Bay heading to bridge out to Wolfeboro Bay. 5th - other side of bridge 6th - More of the favorite birds off the Wolfeboro docks. 7th - looking down the bay toward Goodhue Hawkins Marina |

Shows the 2 Ft temp higher than the 10 Ft for the first time that I've seen. The weather is working its magic! The pond I use as a 2 week ice out measuring stick should ice out today. April 25 looks good still :)

Belknap Point today, ice is getting darker. We'll see some real changes over the next few days.

Lake temp 38/39 degrees. 70's tomorrow and rain Tuesday. All it takes is a week of favorable weather, and this is the week.
|
Very dark ice between Belknap Point and Welch...very dark! Looks like it could open up anytime.

here's the image from this morning... good steady progress showing on the melt-o-meter!!
We will be heading out to the island this weekend for sure, maybe earlier :) According to our totally unscientific historical models... ice-out is declared 4 days and 7 hours after the first time we can get to our dock on Pine Island... hahahaha -PIG |
Time Lapse view on the Echo Shores cam for today shows the ice darkening up pretty significantly in a matter of just a few hours! Changes are going to start happening very quickly
|
I declare ice out when I bring my first bag of "ice out" to the island and pour a cocktail. Can't wait!!!!
|
72 degrees outside
It looks like a lovely warm day at the lake. The lake temp is up to 38 degrees. This is the fun part... it is melting and every hour shows progress. :D
|
perfecto!!

Ice out
Mr Web Master, Can I change my ice out guess I have may 8. I think we will be swiming by then. Ha Ha
|
Just saw a Boston Whaler running around in the open water at the Wolfeboro Corinthian Yacht Club. Also saw a golden jump in from the dock after the Whaler went off camera heading toward where the boat went. There was a boy and a woman on the dock with it before it jumped in. Sorry I did not have enough time to grab the photo.

Time lapse. If you look at it you can actually see the ice melt and the surface change, and it's only several hours of coverage.

Massabesic Ice Out
Yesterday/Last night the ice disappeared on Lake Massabesic in Manchester, this usually occurs one week before the big Lake opens up. The lake was covered yesterday morning with very little open water. With these warm temps it would not surprise me to see the big Lake broken up and navigable by this weekend.
|
Not just yet
While it has been warm down in Manchester area, we have had cool nights before this week. I doubt the big lake will be navigable this weekend. Some of the coves will take more time to open up.

Been fIshin the lake 50 years

Any news on Lily Pond?
Please post if you have news on ice-out on Lily Pond.
|
We have Movement!
The Echo Shores web cam now has a large ice sheet that broke off and is moving around. Also looks like the Alton Bay runway may go at any time. :)
|
Florida to NH
Almost time to leave my winter paradise and return to my summer paradise.

Paugus Bay is ready to go. I would be very surprised if there was any ice left on the Bay by weeks end. The ice is black/green. Yesterday and today have steady winds from the south and west. This cam shot is looking south towards Lakeport.
Water temp 39 @1.5 feet. Water level rising fast, typical of previous years. |
Melvin Village Marina web cam shows some ice breaking up and moving around.

Ice!
Silver Lake in Hollis is almost always one week ahead of Lake Winnipesaukee. Ice-out happened overnight or early this morning. One more week!!! Winnpiesaukee Data Phone is still reporting 38° at the dam. Black Cat Island is recording 41.8° at 2 feet and 40.2° At 10 feet. :D

Cattle Landing
How's the ice at Cattle? Anyone out that way?
