The January Thaw that R2B mentioned a few days ago is now underway. After two days with below-zero temps and just one day with a high of only +6, the air over Lake Winni is now rapidly warming into the 20s as forecast - back to normal winter levels. Models still show the warmup continuing. As I write this, WLNH is announcing "Sunday will be 40" with excitement.

With that said... be veeeryyy careful on lake ice if you do try it. It hasn't had a long time to thicken, and some places (like Black Cat Shoals, and probably others) were open water until the winds calmed down last night.
