Rains effect on ice for Derby

sportsmaniac38 · 01-25-2010, 01:32 PM

With the fishing derby coming up this weekend I was wondering what type of effect the rain will have on the ice. Looking on the webcams looks like a lot of the snow is turning to slush on the ice. I know later on this week the temperature is suppose to drop but will that screw the ice up. This past weekend looked like everything was set up well on the ice. How will it be for snowmobiling on the ice now. I know you need the snow to keep the snowmobile cool so if the snowpack gets hard it will make it tough for the sleds to cool. Any input would be greatly appreciated.
