Good reply Evinrude58!!  So lets take a look at the Indian Lake area forecast. If correct (although it has not been all season), starting Jan 24 -Feb 5 the avg H=28.9 L=12.6. May the ICE GODS be kind to us!!NEVER give up!!!!

January is a lost month, but the local news said for February the average high will be 29.2 and the low will be 12.9.  Hope that’s accurate, because we’ll get some good ice with that!

I haven't completely given up hope but it's not looking good. Unless we get a major pattern shift in the next couple weeks we are pretty much screwed. I have zero faith in the 7 day forecasts, much less the long term. The weather is so screwed up the last few years I don't think anyone has an idea what it's gonna do. And our last ice in the Indian lake area is usually right around valentines day. The days just start getting too long and the sun angle starts increasing after that. If we don't have a really good base by then it's not happening. So fingers crossed for some local ice but I'm not gonna sit around and wait for it. Heading north on the 17th. Hopefully I'll come back to winter...

Just being truthful. No ice in the future. Let’s wait till next year. Ice season is like the Browns.  IFFY !!!
