I go past the "Res" several times a month this tme of the year. Based on what I have seen the past six years, since I retired, the "Res" had ice-out 29 to 36 days before Lake Winnipesaukee. Not enough data points for any real data anaylsis, as a rule of thumb it seems to work. That yeilds April 21 to April 28, if the past six year's difference holds this year. Sounds about right.

I would be very happy with an Ice-Out before the IRS tax is due.
