2018 Ice Out Progress

Hillcountry · 04-04-2018, 05:12 PM

Some brisk winds predicted which will help break up things!

Thanks everyone for the reports and photos.

Looks like it won't be that much longer.

As mentioned previously, the wind might put a big dent in it tonight.

I have been searching for the link to all the ice out guesses with no luck.

Can somebody please post it?

Thanks!

Thanks!

My guess is still looking good!

I got my ice out training as a youth guessing the pond at J.B.Williams Park.

You've got the right hour, just not the right date.

Lily Pond: There is just a small amount of ice left today in the north corner. Less than one sixth of the pond.

Last year the ice on Winnie went real fast after Lily was clear. However as I recall it was quite a bit warmer then.

Today's view from Belknap point shows mostly ice. There looks to be open water extending south a ways from Welch.

Ice out will be April 13th at 11:47 am.

I didn’t catch the entire bit, but Lily Pond was on the WMUR news this morning.
Must have been related to Winni ice out...anyone catch that?

The story was about Ice Out and Emerson Aviation. Showed Lily pond ice from Emerson's photos yesterday.

So what is the prize this year?

Another new F250 like last year?

Descant · 04-07-2018, 04:56 PM

Did an F250 go through the ice again this year? That is where the prize comes from, right?

Outdoorsman · 04-07-2018, 05:52 PM

I am guessing ice will not be out by 11:10 an tomorrow

SAB1 · 04-07-2018, 07:41 PM

Typically ten days after lily pond but last Saturday we fished on twenty inches of ice so that will take a bit longer than the thirteenth

Not to depress anyone but Emerson Aviation did a fly over yesterday and it's still looking real solid out there.
