Keeping up with the Cams
 
Sometimes people change the address of their webcams and it takes me a while to find them again. Today the Ice-Out page at www.rattlesnakecam.com/iceout.htm has three cams restored, Cow Cam, Winnipesaukee.net cam (middle of Alton Bay), and the Channel Cam at the Wiers channel.

I am still looking for Overlook Cam in Paugus Bay and the Welch Island Cam. If you know the addresses of any Winnipesaukee Cams please let me know on this thread.

Some of us just can't get enough!

For those of you with private cams, please take a shot of your view from time to time and post here so we can see the state of ice-out.

Thanks

As an aside I always marvel at how fast the "views" of this thread escalate as we near ice out. It's well over 1,000 views per day at this point.

Hi Island Girl
The Paugus Bay camera was mine when I had a place at Overlook in Paugus Bay. We now have a place on Rattlesnake so the Paugus Bay Camera is no longer active.
Thank you for all the work you do with Ice Out. It is addictive but in a good way!!

Scroll down the page. Since this cam is a live view and not an image, I don't display on the page as it would take too long to load and mobile users don't like that. I link to the cams that are video bases below the images. Corinthian is another live cam you will find there. Just click on the image for those cams and the video will begin.

Some live cams also display an image to which I can link. I cannot find that for the Melvin Village Cam.

Thanks for taking the time to post

Here's a Skype shot from our camp taken across Wentworth Cove just now. That's Governor's Island across the way. The GI bridge is to the left and Saunder's Bay would be to the right.

Looks like Bay ice will be past Sandy Point by the end of the weekend... Lots of fisherman in small craft

Merrymeeting 04-17-2015 03:48 PM

Drove by Sunset Lake this afternoon, a man-made lake in Middleton. Yesterday it was still totally ice covered. Today almost ice free.

It's usually a week or so ahead of the bigger lakes.

I'm a little later with this than I'd planned but it was super foggy this morning and you couldn't see anything from the webcam. Those rocks beyond the dock were surrounded by ice yesterday. It's getting there!

(This is the channel between Ambrose Cove and Moultonborough Bay)

Ice Update W/Pics
 
1 Attachment(s)
Saunders bay was still locked in solid last night.

Fay's boatyard had a few boats in the water but they weren't going anywhere as there was still ice 25 yards out from the docks.

Here's a few more shots taken this morning off my deck. Everything south of Welch is very black and ready to break up with some help from the wind. Everything North of Welch still looks white and more solid.

Came out to the island this morning and it was pretty clear all the way around... however now a pretty good breeze from the south has brought the ice back in... We'll see what it is like Monday morning when we try to leave for work... "I'm sorry, can't get off island until the ice melts"

Paugus bay firefighter
how's the ice doing on paugusbay
didn't have time to get up there today looks like ligh winds

pjard 04-18-2015 04:06 PM

It was hard to tell for sure because the ice is the same color as the water but it looked totally clear from Ames Farm all the way to Diamond Island!

Merrymeeting 04-18-2015 04:08 PM

Looking at WeirsCam and Wolfeboro cams, there are significant change going on. The ice pack in those areas seems to be breaking up and disintegrating, while places on the northern side of the lake still seem more solid.

upthesaukee 04-18-2015 04:27 PM

Alton bay out to the markers at Sandy Point and beyond.

Going Fast!
 
The ice in our cove is receding quickly now, and the remaining ice is getting darker each day. Here's an image from the Echo Shores Webcam taken just before 6 PM this afternoon:

(The islands are Sleepers (on left), Cub, and Treasure, with Rattlesnake in the background.)

PaugusBayFireFighter 04-18-2015 05:28 PM

Paugus ice is drifting with the wind. I can see ice piling on shores both east, west and south of me. I don't think its damaging anything. It appears to be breaking up on contact. Every shift of wind breaks the floe into smaller pieces.

Winni_Bay 04-18-2015 05:44 PM

paugusbay ice
 
that's good news
hopefully within a couple days it will all be gone with no damage
thanks for the report

Meredith Bay Update
 
The ice has pretty much moved out of the inner harbor past Meredith Marina. I was working on my balcony today(right next to the Meredith Yacht Club) and was pleasantly surprised to see the Loons are back!

That is a very interesting image I don't think I recall seeing one quite like that before, the reflection so perfect on the calm water and then none on the ice.

by the time the sun went down there was about 200' of more blue. It is still solid between VP and Lockes. There is still a patch of ice between Fay's and the first channel marker. I'm feeling confident about my guess.

Minge Cove was completely iced in on Thursday. Today, Saturday, the marina is clear and the ice line is nearly to the blinking light\marker.

This was taken at dawn 4-19 from Big Pier at LSP lookihng toward Diamond and Rattlesnake. Last night this view was open water for about 3 football fields.

Looks like the ice is moving around alot with the wind.

Yesterday AM there were guys in small boats and one guy with waders on fishing off Ellacoya, that area is now full of pack ice.
