Just an FYI was not working earlier when "Grant" posted with the text "This camera is missing in action." so he was not imagining it, however it seems to be working now as "Joey" posted.

Probably just a small glitch in the connection.

Yep...working now. Cool view. Love the streaming video cams. Wish the Melvin Village Marina cam would come back online.

Won’t be long now.

This morning Lilly Pond appeared to be ice free. Visibility was not 100% in the light rain so I could not really see the far corner. If there is any left tonight's wind will take care of it.

Hi folks;

Thanks for the comments re: my new "NEST" web cam at the Weirs Beach. Looks like, today 4/15/19, the ice is black and mushy, It is breaking up and moving around pretty good. It is clogging up the channel at Thurston's Marine, but a stiff wind should push it through.
Then hold on and watch the docks on the southern shore-line get hammered.....as usual.

This clip (will take a bit of time to download) is from this morning starting around 7:30 am until about 11:30. If you looked at my clip above from 4-23-18 you will see a bit more movement today. Last year's clip was three days before ice out.

BT, nothing wrong, just a bit overwhelmed (in a good way).

Oh that poor dock!!

From my camera it looks like Winnisquam is opening up just south of Pot Island.

MikeF-NH · 04-15-2019, 05:42 PM

seeing cracks on the ice off Rattlesnakecam and large chunks floating on other cams. Ice is beginning to move and its pretty windy out there now. I expect much progress this week.

Slickcraft · 04-15-2019, 06:04 PM

Alton Bay up past Sandy Point shows the ice divided into large sections just waiting for the wind.

Looking from Belknap point at 5:30 pm there is a wide section of open water spanning from Ellacoya to SW Welch. By morning the wind will have probably closed that in but up opening other sections. The annual ice migration toward Wolfeboro bay has begun. I can hear the wind and the beat of the drums now

MAXUM · 04-15-2019, 07:56 PM

Bet there won't be much ice on the cameras in the morning. Lots of open water from different vantage points. Be awesome to have the boat out this weekend.

Steamboat · 04-15-2019, 07:57 PM

Ice appears largely out to the WNW of Steamboat, and South towards Gilford.

Island Girl · 04-15-2019, 08:52 PM

This clip is the actual speed of the ice moving down Rattlesnake Island around 6 this evening. It is piling up somewhere!

The ice is out as far as mtpy cams can see in front of Rattlesnake Island. Big rollers today.

Mink Islander · 04-16-2019, 06:31 AM

Still a bit of ice on the north side of Mink Island. Today’s wind is going to move that along, I suspect.
