All,
I checked Long Island just before the bridge at 5:00pm Here’s what I found:
- Ambient was 15F with 3 mph winds from the North West
- The new one ce thickness has increased and is now ~2-2-1/2”
- I spudded out 6! From the bank then my chisel started going through after 3 hits.
- There was -5 folks fishing on the Pony Island side about 75 yards from the bank
- No more snow today and dome of the light dusting has blown off the ice.
The lake level is up around 6-8” but it had fallen by about an inch since this morning. I drove past the dam earlier and there”s quite a run on it.
I think it may be possible to get out tomorrow if not in the morning, later in the day. If anyone decides to try in the morning please use extreme caution. The conditions are still very dodgy. I will check again in the morning and post what I find....
