So, it looks like in 1945, it went out on April 1, based on the list that goes back to 1887 or so. That's the only time it was declared on April 1, and there have been a handful of March ice-outs (including last year's record earliest on St. Patrick's Day...)

Obviously my photo was from years ago and not today....thinking this year's real ice-out will be in about 16 days or so...
