Ice is tricky on 12/28
What was very safe ice around here on Saturday has turned tricky. The rain on Sunday formed pools on the lake, which ran into cracks and formed fairly large holes, some big enough for a foot or very small dog to fall into. There is a crackling crust where the remaining standing water froze, but not all of it, as some water remains between the 1/8" crust and 4" base of ice. Now its snowing, which will cover the drain holes. All should be safe again after a few days, but with a snow cover, it will be hard to tell. Stay safe!
