2020 Ice Out Update…8.0

Conditions are changing rapidly…

With a strong west wind the ice has headed towards Strawberry Island and Johnson’s Point leaving about half the bay with open water at this time (4:00 p.m.).

I’m sure all those who have their guess’s picked for around early May are starting to feel all tingly. Is it the virus? No, just a frenzied anticipation of winning this contest!

Thanks again to Bob Swanson for putting together a VBL Tale for the last blog addition. Several others have made promising noises about doing the same….we shall see.
