This larger opening has allowed for some decent wave action to get going which is eroding the edges.
Given the current weather pattern, it's a good bet that there will be several more days of winds from the NW in the next couple of weeks and even though that is a winter direction, it'll help to widen that hole.
The strangest thing is to see the main ice pack as white as it ever was during the winter... but in April when it should be gray!

Wondering if you would be able to post some pictures, you just made me want to run up and turn the engine over just to start the boat up!
