I predicted March 16th in the ice-out contest also!

March 13

Either way, we are in for an early start to the season always a good thing especially after the winter that wasn't.

It's interesting looking at the forecast for the rest of the month...

A year ago we were discussing record late ice out. What a difference a year makes.

Could this be a year in which the ice just sinks and disappears instead of moving down the lake in large icebergs that tear docks apart?

I don't see any outrageous wind in the forecast for the next week.

Saturday looks pretty windy. Ice will probably "go out" then. my guess was WAY late (3/26).
