Just thought I'd start the usual thread on late season ice conditions and ice out, since one hasn't been started already. Last weekend (3/15) trucks were still driving on the ice. I didn't drill any holes, so I don't know what the ice depth was; I assume it was still pretty thick. The ice was pretty firm on top, very little slush, but the warm days were melting the top, creating standing shallow pools of water both Sat. and Sunday. Hard to walk without cleats it was so slippery! Looking ahead, the forecast for the next week calls for highs in the mid forties. If this type of weather keeps up, maybe we'll be looking at a mid to middle late April ice out.
